I prefer butt welding of the top of the quarters. Makes it clean in the trunk. Spot weld the other areas.when doing the butt weld make a bunch of tiny little tac welds until it gets filled in. Place the TAC welds in random areas to minimize warping. Keep a little spray bottle to cool it off as needed. I also shine a light from behind to expose any pinholes. The other thing about quarter replacement is to be patient as you will have to trim and fit many times.

That's actually exactly the way I ended up doing them....shining a light to see the pinholes and all, There was a lot of things and ways I said I was going to do things and ended up doing them different. Heck I totally reinforced my K frame, made my own Strut Rods and Tie Rod bars and then sold everything to go a different route (HDK), So there's been lots of things done differently...I guess everybody will have to stay tuned to the end to count all the changes I'll make. I just made another Big change that I wont reveal for a while but there's several post's referencing the parts before the change I just made.
