Title: Subframe repairs Post by: Johns on June 17, 2010, 11:07:34 AM Hi all,
How difficult is it to repair rust in the subframe just forward of the crossmember mount? Can it be done in situ? Thanks John Title: Re: Subframe repairs Post by: Ed on June 17, 2010, 12:45:38 PM John, If you mean the replacement of a subframe leg end, it wouldn't be the most pleasant job, but with the car up on ramps and a good little reciprocating saw, it seems doable. pics?
