Build question - fitting chassis to subframe

[tj]

Hi,



i am about to fit the chassis to the subframe, and just having a look before I lift into place, but I cannot see any obvious holes for these arms that come from the rear subframe shown in picture below.

They look like they should remain, but how to they fix to the new Exocet chassis?

Hi. The rear "u brace" with 6 bolts that mount it, doesn't fully fit the exocet frame
You can chop off the extra bits you don't need, leaving only the 4 bolts that attached to the rear subframe.

I, and others, have then made a small bracket to Bolt the front of the subframe to the frame, Which has 2 tabs at the rear bulkhead just behind where the seats go.

Thanks John,

Do you have a picture of the bracket?

Not to hand I'm afraid. It's literally any sort of bracket you want to make.

mine is a T shape, with the bottom of the T having a 12mm hole to pick up on the subframe and u brace, and a couple of m8 bolts on the top bar of the T which go into the tab on the frame.
