ok i took everything off that needed to be, i took off the 2 rear nuts, the 4 front bolts and it will not come off. the shocks, everything. is it glued on or something?!?!
i tryed to use a bar to pry it off. no luck. it will not move. the bar even bent little bit. im really confused. everything is off. why is it still on!
plz help

 

lift the car up hehe

No sorry man I have no idea, I know there is some sealant, but I dont think that would keep it on.

 

car is about 18inches off the ground

 

get a propane torch and heat up the contact patchs, should come off, dont pry or you can bend stuff (if your strong)

 

im kinda scared of using fire because the gas tank is right there.
so there is nothing im missing then huh? no hiddin bolts or nuts?
this is weird.
i still have the ppf on there maybe ill use that to pull it down.
any other ideas would be helpful.
thanks

 

I think there are 6 bolts that hold it on. Two in the front "leg" of either side and then two up towards the back of the subframe.

 

ya i got those. its 2 on each leg then 2 nuts in the back.

 

Why are you removing it?

93 touring

 

im striping the frame...

 

take pics when you remove it

 

No, Jeff meant two in the back on each side, as shown below. Cobra 8.8" differential optional.

 

wow! how much would one of those set me back on my fd?

 

I'm not sure yet. I still have to have the axles fabricated to interface with the stock RX-7 hubs.

 

omg how did i miss that! i will see what happens tonight. thanks guys.

 

jimlab what color paint is that?

 

The front stud is tucked up into the subframe, so it's pretty easy to miss unless you're looking up from below.

'02 Corvette Electron Blue Metallic.

 

very nice, i might have to steal that paint color. looks sweet.
ok well i found those 2 nuts, came right down. thanks guys, never would have found those, they were hidding on me.
thanks
geoff

 

o ya i wanted to say that is some nice custom work you did on that frame. do you have pics of that project while doing it? or some kind of templet?
nice job

 

Lots of pics, and the welding jig to reproduce it. The pictures were cross-linked here from my thread on www.torquecentral.com, but they're all showing as broken images now, so you'll have to go directly to the source.
