taught my daughter

about torque patterns and proper torquing of lug nuts. We spent the morning putting my wheel spacers on. I don't have a need for them yet as my H1s are in the rafters of the garage with no tires on them. I just got tired of them taking up space on the work bench so I "stored" them on the axles. I like the stickout of the tire but the brakes to wheel proportion looks wierd.

I got the wire changed out to flux core in the welder and tomorrow we are gonna finish welding up the rear bumper/trailer hitch.

She's 11, she has been helping me with this thing since she was 4. She welded for the first time when she was around 8 or 9.

A slight kink in the plan...My daughter started back to school today so I had to do the welding by myself. I only did the first pass for my hitch install. I will go back over it with atleast 2 more runs just to add a bit more beef to it. The rold edge of the square tube as formed a nice valley that I can fill. I am using .030 flux core for a bit more penetration.
