Smith Racecraft sub-frames
Just wondering if many guys are running them. How were they to install
|
Bolts right in if you car isn’t bent.
|
Ours went right in.Just had to trim the frame connector up front.
Got a smoking deal on it,so even if it was a bitch,it would have been worth it. |

Brian if you already have tubular control arms, rack, etc. it's about 80lbs. I just had this conversation with Jeff Kinsler on Friday. Lol

Wish someone made a 2nd gen rad support like you guys have. That'd knockoff more weight |
Call Ron at Rhodes Custom Auto. 302-378-1701. Not sure if he is interested in doing one, but it would be worth a call. Who knows, he might have already done one.

When my bud and I put the stock frame,with control arms in my truck,we could barely lift it. We are currently still looking for our nuts in his driveway. Worth the investment in my opinion. We got ours from Jeff Mill,Mills588,over on Yellowbullet.He really took care of us. |

The sub-frame really opens things up for headers.

Surprised you got it so quickly.

Thoughts on fitment in first gen with Pontiac power?
Folks - first time commenting in here. I wanted to check if anyone has used the smith racecraft front end in a 67-69 with a Pontiac power plant? Did you fab your own motor plates? Any issues?
Thanks! |

Mine for a 1st gen was 43 lbs lighter than the stock one just subframe to subframe.
