Re: 71 4X4 Frame off Restoration
I finished stripping the frame down to just the leaf spring, axles, and steering box today. The body should be ready to fit on the frame in 2 weeks. I drilled and bolted the motor mount in place. I was able raise the motor mount up about 3/8" and this should help with headers. I also noticed that the rubber motor mounts can be turned around and pick up about another 1/2" in height. I tried to pry the rubber part of the mount up and it did not budge. so with some luck I will be able to raise the motor up about 7/8" then the DH headers might fit. I still have the headman header that do fit.
