I think everyone in the welding/fabrication forum could have a laugh by posting up some of the terrible fab they have personally seen, or pictures they have seen online. If this thread is inappropriate, mods feel free to delete. Here is some terrible 4x4 fab I have saved over the years......

I think they just wanted to use it as the plate on top of the carb. Probably had it laying around and they just cut a hole in it and shoved it onto the carb, haha.

I also just noticed on the first picture, that "thing" isn't even 4wd.....Funny thing that was for sale on ebay a while ago, haha.

This is going to be good.

LMAO!!!!!!!! I will get some pics of this test plate a guy did that was applying for a job at my work, it's a hardwire v-up, and it is honestly the worst weld I have EVER seen, and he said he had a ton of experience LOL. I will get them on monday.

I have another one where the turbo sits a foot above the hood about head height in the drivers line of sight.

I think that crx is pretty cool, if you glance at it, it looks like one of those pictures that have things coming out of a wall or through glass or somthing...lol

ManBearPig4silly

Damn I'm doing that to my jeep! It's like high heels for a car only more gay!

jonsayre

This is great! I think i just threw up a little in my mouth.

but to add real stuff to this thread, i googled "bad welding" and this one was on the second page i think. its a turbo manifold for a 350.

I'm actually digging that rx7 truck. any pics of the buildup?

ImportHatch

hahaha, check out this thread. A common thing that is overlooked on lifted trucks is the steering. Look at these hack jobs, so dangerous..... http://128.83.80.200/taco/scarysteering2.html

TIGboy

yeah haha lol.

Mr.E.G.

one of my customers back when i lived in orlando was this ghetto car lot.

one day i noticed a chevy pickup that they put a lift kit on. instead of buying a real lift kit they simply installed a solid front axle from a 4wd truck (this was a 2wd truck with independent front suspension mind you) and installed some shitty welded bracket to attach the leaf springs to where the upper control arm was supposed to go.

they didnt even put front struts on it.

complete fvcking death trap.

ImportHatch

I'll try to find a pic of the worst lift i've ever seen. A guy just stacked another frame on top of his old frame.....hahaha. Its hilarious.

ImportHatch

Can't find the frame yet, but found these....Wow.





WOW....

ROTARY
