65 sub body in a rotisserie

Anyone done this? Where is the best place to mount? Front and rear body mounts or lower door hinge mounts and lower barn door hinge mount, tia.

Re: 65 sub body in a rotisserie

I'm guessing suburban?..
What I did on my truck is run 2 pieces of tube long ways..I then made standoffs that bolt to the body mounts..this way it doesnt affect any of the body
You can see how the cab is mounted here...I mounted the bed the same way

Yes a suburban body. Front I can use the body mounts, rear I need to do sill work and rotisserie mounts will be in the way,thanks

Re: 65 sub body in a rotisserie

ive got a travelall that going on the rotisserie next....ill mount it in the same fashion i did the cab.. i dont think itll be in the way of anything i need to work on..
if youve got barn doors you could use the hinge mounts, but i think id use upper and lower mounts...there'll be alot of stress on that area if you just use the lower door mounts...that body has alot of weight.
thats why i like to use the body mounts

Re: 65 sub body in a rotisserie

When I built my rotisserie I put standoffs on the support arms so the supports wouldn't block access for media blasting, painting, etc.
