No, you shouldn’t be working on cars if you don’t even have a proper jack, they call those things widow makers for a reason. It is for changing a tire in emergencies not maintenance. You wouldn’t catch me dead underneath a car held up by a brand new snap-on jack without jack stands, let alone one of those death traps.

Next time you do a front wheel drive CVs, it is easier to remove the drive axle if you disconnect the lower control arm ball joint and remove the struts and steering knuckle together if you are replacing the struts. If you are not replacing the struts just disconnect the lower ball joints and loosen the top struts mounting nuts, loosen it enough that you can move the steering knuckle outward to clear drive axle end spline and set it aside with bunching cord or something similar. The drive axle should be easily accessible then. Also if you are using a form a gasket sealant where the part is subject to any petroleum product, use Permatex Ultra Black Maximum Oil Resistance RTV Silicone Gasket Maker. Make sure you degrease the parts before assembly. This thing works. I retired as a fleet mechanic/welder and we used it numerous times on engines and drivetrains.

You ought to get a steel material that is the same thickness as the panhard mounting bracket and try to weld it with your welder with different settings before you weld the actual project. I could be wrong but I think the setting is too cold. It showed that there isn't enough penetration. A good weld should appear smooth, without slag or porosity causing unwanted texture regardless if you are welding with fluxed core wire or gas shielded solid wire. Try setting your machine to weld thicker material which make the machine weld hotter and check how it weld. JMO

Hello, New Viewer here. @25:18 latch installation. As you know, you'll be carrying the spare tire and it is heavy. How the latch is mounted is not holding the swing arm from opening. It should be somehow designed and mounted horizontally to hold the swing arm from swinging out. As it is, the vibration will make the swing arm move back and forth. Also, I think, if you design your swing arm lock @15:38 when you do your remod and shape it like a C and drill 3 position holes, it work better for you. Position the middle hole to lock the swing arm just to clear the hatch when opening it. This way you don't have to open the swing arm all the way when you need something inside the back of the truck. JMO.

@@xxpocketknifexx7084 I also like to mention that if you are going to be mig welding with gas instead of fluxed cored wire, you can save money by using 100% CO2. Mix gas, not only more expensive to refill but also uses more gas when you weld. I use 20 lbs bottle with 100% CO2 on my old 135 Miller MIG and it last me a long time. Probably it last more than 3x than a mix gas with the same capacity bottle.
