[QUOTE="crash2, post: 862009, member: 15940"] So at this point I got the powertrain sitting in the rig where I wanted it with the cross member bolted up. At this point I got looking at the frame rails. Now one thing that I do know you truely want to fully box the frame in--have seen alot of these MB frames pop in places. But for now I am going to work on just the motor area and later down the road if gibby ends up having problems we will have to dig into that (alot of work). Here are the frame rails--as you can see somebody cut some of the frame rail out (used to be 2 large holes, now one large hole,lol) [IMG]http://rdsd.com/albums/album21/gmb9.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://rdsd.com/albums/album21/gmb10.jpg[/IMG] So I cut some frame plates out of 3/16" (1/4" is over kill) [IMG]http://rdsd.com/albums/album21/gmb11.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
