Brake cleaner seeped through.

Thanks. I'd like to see the work on yours.

you peaked my curiosity beyond waiting until tomorrow...

these are the usual spots where the reinforcement pieces are added... which are not added, but are sitting in a box in my back seat.

Sure the HELL does... about identical. Now I have to go back out and take the surface off and hit it with some dye. Swear the driver side bled through. Then again was being clucked at and in a hurry...

Ok great now I have to get out the magnifying glass and go out and see if mine has any cracks!

i think a lot of these early gen 2 trucks have this going on. there were a number of improvements made to the gen 3 chassis. if fortifying a gen 2 chassis you can also use stitch welding along the strut tower sheet metal or go even further with a frame doubler plate to stiffen the entire structure. I will try and get some photos to better explain

I got tied up trying not to go back to work full time and have not dyed it yet. But suspect the "cracks/ cleaner seeping" I thought I was seeing may have been paint vs. metal. Will be interesting to see what photos you have though!
