Any of you guys have frame connectors or torque boxes on your early A's? I sure would love to see some pics, Thanks.
Someone was saying that uscartool is supposed to be coming out with the early a ones soon. I just made some for mine using 1-1/4 square tubing and some plate. welded two pieces side by side then used the plate to connect it to the rails. i'll try and get some pics.
Speaking of which, should frame connectors be welded in while supported by the suspension or by the frame?
Thanks! It cost me $40 Canadian for the channels bent to spec. Maybe another $20 in supplies (cut off wheels, welding wire etc). Not sure how much they weigh.
NOW this boys &girls is what you call a fabricator.beautiful!!! now that's a nice job!!Here are the ones I made for my 66. The pattern is made out of press board and I had a local shop bend the channel out of 11 gauge.
I then transferred the pattern to the metal channel and cut it out.
