I have now positioned both VW bug strut mounts on the struts and compressed the assembly with the uni-strut. I am using 2 – 800lb. capacity turn buckles, some chain and a big “S” hook to compress the entire rear end. The engine cradle is now up off the platform and is supported only by the rear strut springs. I can’t use the uni-strut for the frame member so I need to cut a pipe to fit. After I determine the mount angle I can cut this piece.
