Installation of Full Tilt Street Rods’ Crossmember Kit is easy because we have designed all the correct angles onto our crossmember. You must make a couple of measurements to correctly place the crossmember and spring mounts before welding. Minor adjustments may be needed for some variations in your frame. We recommend that all welding be done by a qualified welder using accepted procedures. We also recommend that a professional alignment shop do all wheel alignment.

1. Start by supporting the car on 4 jack stands. The car should be sitting on approximately the same angle as it does on the ground, or slightly lower in front. (If you are using a new pair of boxed frame rails, you can skip to step 5.)
2. Remove all the old front suspension components. We would recommend that at this point, you tack weld or clamp a temporary brace across the frame rails in front of the old crossmember as shown in Figure 1. This helps to maintain the rail dimension after the old crossmember is removed. Lastly, remove the old crossmember by drilling out the rivets.
