Re: Porsche 944: Actually there is a substitute

Well...
It doesn't look like much but man what a lot of work for such unspectacular results. Burying the cross member down into the floor of the 944 required mucho prep work. Shaving the urethane underbody coating off the bottom. And same same for the tar on the interior side of the floor.

Then cutting into the floor, different widths for the 4 different levels of floor from the factory stamping. Die grinder to relieve the transitions.

Long story short - I created a lot of extra work for myself (just like the other places on the car). But now I can see the light at the end of this tunnel. The cross brace is stitched in and now I can begin to design/fab the trans mount bracket. Whew!
