[QUOTE="markfuga, post: 1394497, member: 10964"] The sway bar mounts are the originals from the 05 donor; I cut them off and welded them to the 96 frame. They absolutely will not work with the 96 radiator support in that position. The 96 support sits in that area and will not fit with the sway bar mounts I welded there. I'll be modifying the 78 radiator support with parts from the 96 support so I can easily compensate where needed. Going into the weeds a little: I made a transfer jig on the 05 frame before removing anything. Then I used that jig on the 96 frame to locate the spring perches, sway bar mounts, traction bar mount and the steering stabilizer mount. This is how I located the sway bar mounts where I have them. The engine is a tight fit against the firewall. I'l be doing sheet metal work for the down pipe, turbo and back of the drivers side cylinder head. Plenty of room on the left/right with the original inner fenders and lots of room up front for the radiator. [/QUOTE]
