I did another layer of seam sealer to make sure everything is sealed.
Once it dried I sprayed over it with 3m Rubberized undercoating.
Now I started making my brackets for the rear. The driver side rail is straight but on the passenger side it curves. For the passenger side I cut a piece 8" long and then made 3 relief cuts in it to allow me to bend it.
Next I used a pry bar to bend it to the shape I wanted. Bend it a bit then check it with the frame rail and continue until it matches up.
Once I had the curve I wanted I then filled in what I could with the welder.
For the bigger gaps I cut out a piece to weld in place. I used a magnet to hold it in place on the inside while I tacked it in place.
Now you just run a bead down each side then straight down the middle to raise it to the appropriate height.
Just grind down the welds and your good to go now.
