    Default ZT260 Front subrame..

    I was having a good nose around under the ZT while I had it up on my two poster to swap the silencers..

    Has anyone ever had a good look at the subframe??? Its a modified 75 subframe but it looks like it was modifed using a hacksaw and a piece of 20 x 50 12 guage box section! They didnt even clean up the cut faces lol !

    And who ever at longbridge welded the rear subframe on my car needs to go sit on the naughty step

    I did read or hear something many years ago; in order to convert the body shell from FWD to RWD they used some really sophisticated modern tools, I believe they were called "Angle Grinders" and "Fillers"
