‘52 Chevy Pickup: new frame Pt.2
After the frame rails were finished I welded in a cross member over the kickup. I then tacked a light piece of angle between the rails in the front to hold them at the correct distance. I propped the rear frame and the subframe up on blocks at the ride height. Both needed to be trimmed, I found the spot on the subframe where the rear frame had the closest match and torched it off. I determined how long the rear frame would have to be to have the correct wheelbase and cut it off. I then slid them together as seen below.
