Notice how the bracing across the door is inside? It's so you can fit the doors to check gaps

Is there any way of just bracing one side at a time?

Also got the frame welded in place. The car is on axle stands at the back but door gaps look fine. I've put the stands by the tunnel but there is quite a bit of sagging on the rear passenger side floor
