Location: Tobias, NE | Going to be putting my 60 Fury on a rotisserie and wanted to know if it should be done with the sub frame on or off? It would be nice to save the extra feet by removing the sub frame, but would like to know what others have done on their uni bodies.
thanks

| I have never left a sub frame on any car when rotisserie. Camaro/Firebirds...
Definitely off... |

Location: Perth Australia | My fury hasnt got that far yet, but my dodge has been there, sub frame off (with the rotisserie on, the car is really long anyway)
This is the dodge
Use the mounting as a guide, but this was a bit "bouncy for my liking, when the plymouth get to rotisserie stage, I will mount it the same way, but weld up an actual mount and attatch that to the rotisserie.
You can see the angle the arms are on, I never turned the car fully upside down, I didnt trust it

Location: Perth Australia | Not sure really, but to much for that rotisserie, I also had to buy another piece of square tube to join the 2 ends together (dont forget to do this or the ends will want to do the splits)
At a guess, I would say around 1000kg, but you have to bank on more, taking into account you weight, you tools ect and the bouncing it will do when you sanding it ect
