I know there is a you tube video of a guy changing a pillars and heater channels in a small one car garage. I cant search from my work computer though.

ive had a look and found a few on there but none show the cutting of it that ive found and the bracing needed

[mac2881994]

I only made one brace per side when I did my channels, lower front fire wall and both a pillars. There is a picture on my post on page two. http://www.shoptalkforums.com/viewtopic ... 7&start=15 It was made from an old bed frame cut in half and a turnbuckle with the eyelets cut off then welded them together. It allowed me to take the doors off and be able to fine tune the door openings to the right size before final welding of pillars and channels.
