Here Is The Build Up Of My Monster Sub Frame Connectors.
ok guys i dug up some more pics. i started by measuring from the trans crossmember to the end the frame rail were i wanted the connector to butt up against the brackets for the front spring hanger. it sound confusing but you will see in the pics what im talking about. i then measured from that back point and to the spot were the bar would poke thru the floor. i cut a piece about 8in long and then cut it down the side so that i had a piece of C-shaped metal. i use some duct tape to hold onto the frame rail and then used masking tape to trace the contour of the floor. then i dropped it all out and transfered it onto the actual connector.
then i trial fitted it and once i was happy with the length i drooped it out and cut another 1/8 off the front to allow for the plate.
and here is what it looked like before i put it in.
i then cleaned/grinded/wire wheeled the underside until i looked like obama
you can see how it fits around the floor adn the frame. i also had to trim the bracket for the bucket seat mt./brake line mt.
and there you have it. my car can sit on 3 jackstands and the doors still open like a new sedan.
