Re: C4 Corvette Subframe DOM tubing

My pictures of fab work are like the offroad pictures I've taken of my k5. i hate it when you are climbing a wall and and anything that falls off of the dash goes straight to the back seat. Still in the picture it looks like I'm driving down a gravel road. Kinda seems like the pictures make every thing bow and bend in a way they really are not.

I think I figured out the problem I was having with frame measuring square but still not being straight. I was cross measuring from the lower a arm bolt holes bringing in 10 or so inches of vertical measurement. At that point I had not acurately leveled the frame so i think the frame must of had a twist to it that was counter acting the sway in the measurements. Anyway it's straight now.

I do like the idea of gussets on the front upper mounts. They won't add much strength as the will be across the load placed on them not in line with it. But I have to cut the inner fender to clear the mount and gussets will make it flow better.
