you are going to have to do some fabrication and welding to make it work. i don't think there is an "easy button" for this job.

Usually a frame is bent fron rod, then dzus tabs are welded to it. That's how mine was first set up, and that's how it ill be done again.

I have pics somewhere, when I get to work I can toss them up.

WHOA!

Do you have pics of the inside of the front end by chance? All I have is pics of domestic/100% tube chassis cars.

I had the same stuff on my EG and I ended up losing the hinge crap. You can't do anything with the hood up and its just as easy to slide it off, then slide it back on.

Yeah, I never used the hinger feature either, the only thing I liked about it was you could see the rods better where they enter the frame rails.
