NTRCOOL Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 Hey guys I am curious if w-bodies came with aluminum sub frames? I was wondering years makes and models, I swear I seen one laying on the ground at LKQ in rockford and it sparked my interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jman093 Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 00+ impalas and Monte carlos did as well. There are really more differences in these cars and the earlier 2nd gens that there are between gen 1 and gen 1.5 w's. And ntrcool, if you're going to ask if it can be swapped, the answer is no unless you're able to fabricate real well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BXX Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 Yeah, as much as it would be nice to swap one of these in, a far amount on fabrication on the front side mounts will be required. IIRC the rear mount locations are correct, the fronts I believe are wider and sit higher up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTRCOOL Posted May 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 The thought crossed my mind when I seen the one in the yard. but my budget is low for the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
