Please note that the modified factory subframe that appears in the Campbell gallery was junked long ago by the present owner. The subframe suffered from a variety of problems. For example, the picture below shows how far forward the rack is located. The steering arms are at the absolute limit of their travel. Less obvious is that the UCA inner pivot points were too high. Fixing the subframe would have required new crossmembers as well as modifications to the frame rails. Since there would be very little OE frame remaining, the decision was made to install a 21st century clip.

I just don't want folks to get the idea that it's okay to duplicate the original Campbell clip.
