    do you have any pictures of the dolly my big question how does it mount to the car does it clamp over the torsion tube in the rear and bolt to the steering rack boss in the front?

    I was sorta wondering what it would take to create a dolly/jig. Dunno if anyone has the specs from a Celette jig that could be incorporated into one of these things.

    I used some U-shaped steel for the torsion tube to sit in and just some flat pads coated with rubber for the front just behind and out from the steering rack tunnel.

    Make sense?.......I'll try to get some pics to you.

    I have a Celette jig too but the factory manuals have dimensions that might help you also.
