Engmann's kit only "stiffens" the chassis. It would just be a bandaid to fix the actual problem you have, "no metal". You will have to replace the metal thats gone. And as the longs go, that is your frame. When you go to cut out the bad stuff, and weld in the new, the car needs to be supported, in the right way, and keeping dimensions. It's not even close to easy for the inexperienced, and from what i've seen even the pros aren't fond of that repair. If you've got some welding and fabrication skills, then you should be ok. But if you're new to that.. then you're going to have one helluva steep learning curve. Just a fair warning. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) |
