I'm thinking about building a rotisserie in this fashion, and I have a few questions maybe someone has some insight on.
Firstly, it seems to me that the outer suspension consoles would be better than the transmission mounts for mounting the rear? Doing so would mean you not need eight ~9ft pieces of steel (requiring purchase of eight 10 ft pieces to be cut off). I haven't measured what you'd need exactly, but at most eight footers. Supporting at the suspension mounts also would seem to strain the diagonal parts of the longs less, and cause less sag in the body? The other question I have is about use of the cross support for the steering/A arms as part of the rotisserie. I don't really have a spare piece and it seems like it would be easier to use a stout beam like a .25" wall 2 x 2 or similar to bolt to the same locations? Is there something I'm not considering why using/sacrificing the stock piece is preferable? |
