In this detailed DIY tutorial from Greg's DIY Garage, I show the complete first half of installing the Hellwig Frame FX Kit on a 1970 Chevelle frame as part of my ongoing 1970 Chevelle Restomod series, Episode 43. This Hellwig Frame FX Kit install strengthens the factory GM A-body chassis for serious high horsepower builds, including 600+ HP pro-touring and restomod applications where the stock frame cannot handle the power and torque.
Watch step-by-step as I make the first cuts, check measurements, straighten the rails, fit the plates, prepare top rail options, straighten the C-channel, install the new body bushing mounts, fit the center plates, place the frame under the body, locate and tack the new body mount braces, and more. Perfect for anyone searching how to install Hellwig Frame FX Kit, Chevelle frame reinforcement, A-body frame boxing, or frame strengthening for classic car restoration.
