need to cut the outer arche first and get this to fit well
the more you cut out the more room you have to fit the inner
then once you've done this, look inside the arch and there is a join line
cut alone this edge on the bad side(bit that you are removing) and then this will leave you a lip of the tub
clean this up so you have a flat surface
then the inner tub drill you spot weld holes and line this up on the inside, like the one just removed
then check the outside still fit fits,
then from the outside spot weld on the inner arche
then seam weld the outer one on
hope that all makes sense. if not is did take some photos on my project thread
