No pics of the actual brackets only concept dwgs under my corvette photos. Will post when I get them fabbed up.
I was gonna CNC up some fancy brackets... Posted here... Was talked out of it so I went with a stock lower bracket that can space down with some CNC plasma cut shims to get the best position used 1x2x0.125 rec tubing and sheet. The bottom is done save for a bit of welding on the stock bracket. Spacers for mounts are turned from 316 stainless round stock. componets Pics posted already
For the upper inner bracket piece of the same 1" DOM tubing tapped 5/8-18 welded to a piece of 1/8 steel that will welded to the existing cross member in the correct location.
For the upper outer bracket I have some OTS pieces from S&W that I might use or I can build something from 1/8 or 3/16 flat stock.
I just need to get some time to spend on the project.
