It's been a slow process but I like to keep you guys updated.....The other day got a great deal on a ATS Trans Crossmember.These are specifically built for stock subframes but I ended up building some brackets to fit Scott's Frame.

Looks good Philip. Step by step Bro...:thumbsup:

Wouldn't lengthening your steering arms give you less overall steering angle. The rack would move the same distance, but the longer arm would cause the angle to be less because of the lever affect.

Or am I looking at this wrong?

that's a hell of a project man im sure it will (. Y .) whens its done.
those three cars u previously owned are my other dream cars specialy that datsun 510:beavis:

Nice job installing the cross member, Nice and rugged. Sweet Motor.

Thanks Ron,I would like to speed the process but Work has been really buisy for me.....I need a vacation or a full free weekend so I can go strong on the car.

Thanks for the compliments

Thanks Wayne, I been following your build and it's been a great inspiration :thumbsup:

Philip that looks great. I wound up modifying an ATS crossmember, as well.

Will those cross member braces fit under the stock floor? Or are you going to have to do some more cutting.
Car is looking great, you have some pretty good skills.

Good eye! :thumbsup: I actually have a new 1 piece floor going in soon,Went ahead and placed the new floor on the subframe and made sure I had clearance.Things can change though,when finalizing the fitment of the floor.

Thanks for the compliments

It's a very nice looking piece and I like the idea of it being a 3pc unit were it's easy to remove.

nice build, very very nice progress

Great updates!:thumbsup:

Phillip,Those trans mount bracket look awesome.:thumbsup:

"Thanks Wayne, I been following your build and it's been a great inspiration"

No thanks necessary . Your the one doing all the great work,You earned it. I wish I had you're talent.
