Chassis stiffening, torsionbar tubes and frame horns?

[Steve C]

Hi

Some nice chassis work there.

On all my cars I always fit another bolt and mounting pad like the shock tower one near the torsion bar cover. The threaded section is already on the chassis and the hole is also on the body.

I'm making my own floor pans with a RHS perimeter frame where the body attaches to the pan. This is in an attempt to increase ridgidity. I dont like how the end of the rear torsion housing hangs in the breeze and will but a RHS section from the end of the tube to the perimeter frame.

I was thinking to connect the torsionbartube to rollcage or to pan with rectangular bar or plates.


I found picture from TF-1 case maker, they have put tubes between chassis midsection and torsionbar tubes:

Hey, I just saw this thread, good one!
I personally tied in the t/tubes with a brace that runs the outside of the pan, so the ends of the tubs aren't hanging out by themselves. I do like allot of what I see here. Makes me want to do some more mods.
