Title: subframe identification
Post by: 31_plymouth on October 27, 2007, 06:54:03 PM
I am trying to determine what kind of sub frame I have.
Here are some details: It has Drum Brakes, Riveted upper ball joints, and a power steering pump with this number on it: 5691676 below that number is the number 38. The motor mounts are on the frame. So my question is, Are the coil springs for a 6 cylinder or a V8 and is there enough information to tell what this sub frame came from.

Wheres the control arm rebound bushings located, lower arm, front, lower arm rear, or on the frame?  Do the coil spring tags have tags on them?

The rebound bushings are mounted on the lower control arm on the front side. the coil springs were media blasted and there is not markings on them. I measured the sway bar and it is 11/16 of an inch, I don't know if this is a clue. thanks

Its a 69 Camaro (or 69 to 73? Nova) subframe.  Does the passenger side motor mount have a single bolt hole in the middle of the top of the mount (6 cylinder), or does it have a pair of bolt holes on the front and rear face of the mount where the motor mount bolt passes thru and no hole in the top face (8 cylinder)?
