Hey everyone,
So this may be a really dumb question, but I am looking for insight and advice. I am planning on stripping down the undercarriage of my 1g to POR15 / rust proof and am looking at ways of supporting the car without any suspension, / subframes in the car, and without supporting on the frame rails. Since I plan on stripping the existing chassis and undercoating I dont want anything on the rails or that would get in the way. Would the front and rear crash beams be capable of supporting the weight of the chassis? I mean that is how rotisseries would attach, but just wanted to hear some thoughts.
I have large jack stands that would likely be elevated on 2x10s or something to give a bit more height without compromising stability. Really just looking for ideas or advice.
Thanks,
Garret.
