1994 Mitsubishi Mighty Max - Weekend Warrior: STK TRUK Edition Part 6: Front Bags

13. Steve used an airbag that was laying around in the shop to test for clearance.

14. At this point, we were ready to torch the lower arms to make room for our 'bag mounts.

16. Steve made a template of our upper pockets to make mounts for our airbag. One mount would be welded into place then the second would bolt to the 'bag and the plate.

17. Here, we were tracing out our lower 'bag plates.

18. We ground down our work area then tacked our lower bracket into place.

19. Next, we drilled our upper brackets. We also counter-sunk our Allen bolts to hold our plates together.

21. Here's a good before-and-after shot of our brackets. We also welded nuts to the upper bracket.

23. Steve was tacking the upper bracket into place. Please note that before we put this bracket in, Steve went through and added welds to all of the seams for additional strength.

25. We bolted our bracket onto our airbag for a test fitting. We then used our Allen wrench to put it into place.

27. We made one more test fitting before the final cuts and welding. You can see the marks Steve made for the final cut. We also checked for clearance, and even though it's hard to see in the pictures, the 'bag fits great.

28. Here's the finished product, minus the 'bag.
