Only one weak area? ;)
In my search to convert the "flexi-flyer" into something that resembles a
1970s race car,
I've invested in 40 feet of chrome-moly tubing welded to the chassis,
applied continuous
weld to *every* weld point on the frame, and attended to the usual TR frame
fixes by
extra gusseting at the steering rack, lower-A-arm pickup points, upper rear
spring mounts,
and at all corners of the trailing-arm mounting beam. At least now I can
jack up one
corner and open and close doors (this without a motor and gearbox, so I am
not sure
if this observation will change when the car is fully "dressed").
