well did a bunch of meserments and all I have to do is cut the old frame out and the y frame will go back in its place Are you welding it back in to body like factory frame is ? Just curious. I got a wrecked Doba that both frame rails are bent to side. Throwing around few ideas.

welding the y' s but bolting the sub back in it but I guess if you was running a mod class you can weld it back in only thing I can do is weld my down legs to the top of it with the rules the way they are all 4 legs have to be in on side the front door seams so they will all be welded to the frame

that's the plan has any one ever pitched one before or is it really needed I've only ran one y frame before it held up against a mid 70s caddy but I'd like this to be a little better then the last one Don't pitch a y frame or it will end up on the ground in nose. The 60s are pretty straight the 70s have Lil more upper ward angle but still wouldn't pitch one. Put a level on it an see how straight it already is. just going off mine, it was pretty level. only "pitching' id do is sucking rear mounts as tight as possible. maybe run some extra steel under seats and bolting through that.

Holy crap, that sounds like a ton of work to put an average frame under an average car.
