tranmission carrier bolt spacing.
Just acquired a type 3 subframe with frame horns. Now Damo and I thought it was the early subframe with IRS brackets welded on, but after I got it
home I noted that it actually a late irs subframe with early horns and under rail welded to it.
So its look to be a fairly good job apart from some sloppy welding which I can die grind it out and re-weld everything and add some re-enforcements.
Question is, can someone provide me the geometry "blue prints" to the frame horns and where they sit in respect to everything else. oh and type 3,
type 1 will be different in some ways.
So far I have measured that the horns are perfectly horizontal at 300mm to the tower plain to the centers of the horn bolts.
Other thing I need to work out is how wide is the carrier bolt spacing? can someone measure a trany carrier plate from the dead centers of the main
bolts from bolt to bolt, that way I will know what the distance of the frame horns will have to sit from each other.
here is a link of a thread I started, should give you an idea.
