  • In this video I will show you How to INSTALL Sub-Frame Bushings on a Pontiac Firebird or Chevy Camaro First Gen car. New bushings run about $50 for a set of six factory style. It only takes about an hour to install the new sub-frame bushings and square up the frame to the the body. Basic hand tools is all you will need.

    I use a 10mm deep well socket on a 3/8 extension for an alignment pin fits snug, then when I loose it somewhere in the car it can join all the other 10mm sockets that just vanish. Great progress!

    I used the alignment pins from summit racing and measured everyplace I can find. Thanks for the video!

    The front mounts have alinement holes that line up with holes in the torque boxes they put the subframe in the proper location without all of the measuring.

      What is the correct tool to use while aligning the subframe? Thanks.

      i think a spud would work for alignment one on each side

    That's awesome, it'll be cool when you recreate that picture. I see that Pontiac engine in the background. You look a lot like your brother in the picture

      Thank you man, that engine is 326, it has some issues :( but I think we can overcome those!

    Are you planning on redoing the body ? If so why don’t you get all the parts like exhaust and brake lines and what not out of your way if you plan on replacing them ? Is the subframe going to come back out ? Just hate to see you do work twice or the hard way.

    • @anthonysantiago1999
      @anthonysantiago1999 Před 2 lety +2

      Yep! The exhaust was driving me crazy seeing this video. Wont work anyways with the 326 thats going to go in.

    • @ArrowheadGarage
      @ArrowheadGarage  Před 2 lety +1

      The exhaust is coming out when I start in on the rear end, the pipes are only hanging on via the rear connections. Thanks!

      Yes and no.. you can pull the 4 that mount under the body... but those radiator ones are going to be harder to replace.
