1985 D150 "Mr. Curtis" race truck with a 2015 6.4

So i began cutting that 1500s chunk of frame and after two hours i got me something to make something else from:



This is one of the control arm mounts, that will be welded to a piece of plate which will be welded to the frame.



And this is the brace, that will be modified quite a bit.



About 2.56" will be cut from the middle and the bolt holes need relocating by 1.38" each.
This way the control arm mounts will fit inside the frame rails, just like on the 1500.


And there's more cutting ahead:


I need at least one set of the UCA mounts from that hunk of metal. And if all else fails, the crossmember as well.
