[QUOTE="clemsonjeep, post: 467695, member: 6317"] Depending on what the deal was with your links the mounts might have been a band aid of sorts. What I mean is...if those are the links from the previous setup being used on the new rig and you didn't want to mess with cutting them up then in order to get the wheelbase and the chassis design you were after then the mounts might be all that would work. Without knowing the details there's no way to really know. Do they look "fragile"...no. Do they look "beefy"...maybe not. From the angle it's shown...I might plate the top of it and run a tube at a 45* or so up to the chassis to provide more support. Radiator hose... Well if it were me building that setup I would have tried to get the tube closer to the radiator and use a shorter 90* to make the connection. Will what you show work...yes. Is there anything wrong with it...just the aesthetics of it if you really want to break it down that far. Where's the pics of the finished product? [/QUOTE]
