So i have access to one

But whats better and what areas of the car should be worked on while its on it...


Would this be the best time to replace the floorpans? or does it have to be on jackstands to support the middle...were putting it on the rotisserie so we can blast it and prime the whole shell

By the way... i got the car COMPLETLY stripped and gutted exept for the suspension and brakes

Under no circumstances should you attempt to replace floor pans while on the rotissire. You should have the car supported with jack stands on the tourqe boxes.

Oh the stories I could tell about rotissire boo boo's.

Normally they hook up to the rear bumper brace on the back of the car.

If you don't have the T brakets, you'll have to make some. My rotisserie came with a set that bolts where the rear bumper brackets bolt on. I'm alos supposed to run a strap under to the bottom of the frame rail as well on each side. They call it a mount stiffener.

all you have to do is remove the rear tie down mounts on the rerar frame rail and pound them straight. bolt them back up and drill or blow holes in the arms to bolt to the mounts. thats what i did.
