How to Frame Reinforcement on 1964 Impala Lowrider Hydraulics
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- Frame Reinforcement on 1964 Impala Lowrider Hydraulics. This video is intended to help other learn how to reinforce a frame for hydraulic setups. The 64 impala was made with a X frame that can't withstand the force produced by hydraulic suspensions for very long. It is necessary to take the proper steps in reinforcing the stress points on the frame. Same goes for many other lowriders, reinforcement is almost always a must. I have personally seen the aftermath of a hydraulic setup without reinforcement, sagging doors, sagging fenders, most common is the body will start to crack behind the back window where the entire rear frame has bent downward due to weight in the trunk. Hopefully this video can start you on the right path.

Bucket list car. I’m terminally ill and unless GOD does a miracle I won’t be around long enough to buy or build. Beautiful work. God Bless you brother.
I'm so sorry god be with you Amen❤❤
Tell me you still here mane
@@Mac_with_the_lsx yes. Barely hanging in. Thanks 🙏🏻 and God Bless
this is the first time in life I have EVER commented on a you tube video! I am compelled to express what i just saw in this video. So, first of all, this is by far the greatest in depth video i have seen on frame reinforcement. Not only that, the lingo that dude is using is straight hittin switches in the streets lowriding. I love the passion and appreciate all who keep the lifestyle alive. The only thing I'm mad about is that yall aint closer to Philly to work on my 64 impala conv. 4 pumps 10 batt. fyi, been lowriding for 25 years. keep up the good videos!
Emmanuel Ekeleme that's what started all this, hard to find any information or help with this stuff, I'm also working on several others that I will be posting soon.
Emmanuel Ekeleme CHILL is that you commenting
Emmanuel thank you very much man. Im 37 years old and have been into the lifestyle since I was 16 years old. Definitley not something that you can just stop. I don't care how old I get, a passion is a passion no matter what.
Aaron Christensen
I'm into another genre of cars you could say, but I love lowriders..
the time and effort put into them is amazing...
I know cause one of my cars is in 100 pieces.
Haha hey if ya can't get a low rider car get a bike , I did😬
Just go to Motion 3 Customs.. Hmm Lol 😝
Tell that welder to go on lunch break next time you film a video!
He’s a real welder ha
He don’t take breaks
He’s paid by the hour not job lmao. He be takin them breaks
What a great video. This is what youtubeing is all about, sharing that knowledge. Thanks for taking the time to put this video up guys. Very, very helpful.
Thanks for all the comments guys. Just an update, the frame is finished and has been filled and painted. Also, the adjustable upper control arms have been removed and replaced with OEM arms. They have not been extended or reinforced yet but definitely will be. Front end has been put back and as well as the rear end. Had to replace a rear main seal in the engine yesterday and new oil pan gasket which took up a lot of time. Also got the y-bone on Saturday and have installed it. Hopefully have the engine mounted today and maybe even the body back on the frame. Also, the battery and pump racks have been primered, painted and cleared with paint that was matched to the car.
Nice video! Im on the tail end of frame off restoring my 64 hardtop. I opted for air bags from BC Fab, you cant do as much with bags but hydros are just so heavy. I wrapped the X section of the frame on my car for a little added rigidity. Should work out alright.
very....very cool & informative video that addresses real world problems & solutions that can arise when tackling a tough mechanical task dealing w/ framework....nicely done!
Hard to listen with the welding noise in the background, but other than that, great vid. Thanks!
Very, very informative. I have a64 impala convertible. I, unfortunately, cannot install Hydros on it because it would be a HUGE waste of money because of the roads in this city. But, hopefully, one day I can get the frame reinforced and toss switches on it.
It's true there are very few videos on wrapping a frame. Thanks for taking the time to make these. very helpful. I'm wrapping my first 66 impala frame and trying to make a few quick videos along the way. I'm looking for all the help I can get. maybe you could do one on molding the frame after reinforcenent?
Thanks again man....
Thank you guys for the video!!
How many sheets of 3/16s did u use for the whole frame
What a bout the Cold welding spot
When you weld 4 inch at a time.
Great job & video bro
any old car you must wrap the whole frame period
S.I. Thug that’s the right way to do it fa sho
What about if its partial reinforcement?
Look up 1959 olds guard beam frame, if you added those side beams I bet it would help out
I like your videos! Can u make a dog leg video (rear three wheel) thanks .....
More videos please.
R D Rob working on it. Have several coming up. How to make removable battery racks, custom rear spring perch and reinforcement, installing extended trailing arms and how to make them work. Anything specific your wanting to know?
No nothing specific that I need. I just really enjoyed watching your video. I was always curious how they reinforce frames to three wheel. Now I see how it's done
What do you charge to do a full frame wrap?
How about a 90s Cadillac Brougham on two pumps 6 battery setup ?
Raser Cat do the 4 stress points and the chest plate should be good enough bro
Reinforcing the frame for hydraulics seems like the right thing to do. But how much does it cost to remove the frame from the body and reinforce the whole frame like in your video?
Joe Garcia Im wondering the same thing.
Looking at 2500 on a homie hookup to 5000 but you can find one for 3000-3500 I’d do it
@@danieleckerman7099 i just got a 62 w mad frame cancer in the rear. good to know..
About $8,000-$12000
@@danieleckerman7099 I wish but you are off about 7to 10 grand
Do you box in the back in support
Good work
Russ !
Do you have to have a full wrap on a 64 convertible because it has less support? Can you get away with a stress point reinforcement if you’re just doing fbss and no 3 wheeling or hopping.
Where is ur shop good stuff man good information
Hello, I am currently doing a 63 impala hardtop to functional factory working vert conversion, and I was wondering if you know what the interior body structure for the vert looks like, I have the vert frame and windshield frame I just need to know and see what all else the interior structural integrity needs to have done to it! Thanks
How much is it to re enforce the frame? More or less
Great Vid.. Informative..
Will you reinforce the frame of a four-door Mercedes Benz for me so that I can cut the roof off
Naw you said it right the first time!!!!!!! LINCOLN
good videos .can you make some video on how to install cylinders. there no videos on UA-cam. Good job .
guadalahustler that is the video I'm working on now. Should have it up and others this week
how can i tell when the frame has been twisted on a 64 hardtop impala? is one door dosent completely shut flush?
I was wondering on some low riders I notice chains in the rear axle to the trunk I think and can you get the same affect using air bag shocks I think they are?
Good video by the way
Will you ever do a video showing a complete build?
Lee Hernandez working on it now but unfortunately it's a process that takes time. Will post progress as we go along
jus subbed.good work
They were on it when he got it, we have to change them out, they touch the frame now with no weight on the frame.
Can i reinforce without removing the body.
Can I use metal plate or do I have to buy steel plate
What size metal do u recommend to wrap frame
those are cool a arms on top .
What’s going on? My name is also Russell Harris. And I have a 62 impala that I want to do this to.
How much will this cost to do on a 68 Cadillac deville
i have never seen adjustable upper control arms b 4
stfu bitch nigga
Where are you located at. I just got my first lowrider ever. Lincoln Town Car & i want to do it right???
Clarksville TN
awesome. :D
Great job on the video.
Playing all 4 sides, boxing in everything
I have a 64 and a extra 64 frame im not using, can i cut up one and weld it to the other
those nubs u got welded to the rear of the frame for the rack. im sure most people weld the rack to them but have u ever seen anyone use them to bolt the rack in?
Actually those are removable racks, I just havent posted the videos yet. I will be posting the video in a couple weeks when the car is completely done. It will be a how to make removable racks and several other things.
Russell Harris cool, please touch on those in the video,,,,, it makes scents that its removable rack.
fuzzy wuzzy we did a few now like that but haven't posted the videos, it's easy but time consuming to make it all line up right. We have some pretty cool stuff coming up, stay tuned
Do you have contact information? I need my Frame wrapped on my 64
I only got the rear arches, front sides, and underneath the belly. Got 3 pumps 10 batts. Starting to notice gaps in doors and fenders. Somebody said sit the car on jack stands all 4 corners and it will restore the frame and close the gaps. Then box in the center of the frame. Will that help?
Gride Brougham I’m not saying that won’t work but once the damage is done, it’s hard to correct. I doubt doing that will fully straighten the frame. But give it a try, once it has straightened as much as you can get it, fully reinforce frame and fix whatever bodywork needed.
Thank you. Kinda figured it wouldn't go back 100% to specs. But If I can get it close, I'll box in the center span. My next build will be a frame off :thumbsup:
Do I need to reinforce both sides top and bottom or leave the bottom out ?
Nathanael Pedroza it’s best to reinforce all sides if possible.
Hey is it mandatory to re enforce the frame to start hoppin ?
yes
So are u just pretty much putting plate steel where ever the frame isnt already boxed..or are u completely wrapping all 4 sides of the frame in plate steel
Help save you time on welding the frame is to have an air blow gun by you each time you weld after quickly blow it with compressed air
Curtis Fisher
Rapid cooling after welding will cause the metal contract. If it contracts too much too quick, it'll end up cracking the weld.
Frank Rodriguez tell him ay!
My car frame is made for hydros so I'm am very lucky
Is 1,700 too much for a partial wrap for my 63 Impala? That's what they wanna charge me when they install my hydraulics?
RC Jr depends on where exactly the are reinforcing, thickness of metal, and quality of work. But assuming they are using 1/4 inch since it’s just a partial wrap, and the welds are nice and the work is good, $1700 is a decent price. My suggestion before you do that would be to call Pit Bull Hydraulics and ask how much for a completed frame, they have them already done sometimes, just send them your donor frame and they send you a finished one. Not always but they are the gold standard when it comes to frames. Brent knows his stuff
They're mainly focusing on the front and rear axle, they're not removing the shell of the car. Thanks! I do plan on doing a little hopping and maybe three wheel.
RC Jr my advice is to find someone else that knows impala frames and Hydraulics to do the reinforcing. The weak points of the x frame at mainly from the middle to the back. Call Pit Bull
Russell Harris Lowrider Hydraulics thank you
I looking into buying a 64 hardtop impala that is partial reinforced trail arms,a arms,side & bottom of frame. is those areas the main stress point for a 4 pump car? Thanks
Easier to sell convertible frame get a ht frame add 2 body mounts and u don't have all the factory welded reinforcements in the way
Are you guys located in Clarksville
Yes
Russell Harris Lowrider Hydraulics would've never knew. I have a 63 4 door belair i want to transform into a lowrider but couldn't find anyone in the city to do it. The shops i went to kept talking about airbags and I'm not a fan of that
Where are you located?
Russell Harris Lowrider Hydraulics new providence area
Find me on FB and I’ll come with a few guys to take a look, worse case you’ll have some new homies that can help you get up and going. If you are not a part of Tennessee on Hydraulics page, go join and Message me.
how much is this project?
Marco Santa Cruz to do yourself, if you have all the tools and equipment, around $500 worth of metal and misc items. Having someone do it, $2500-$4000. Painting included.
Couldn’t bare the welding in the background.
Should have that welder give it a break while you make your videos can’t hear shit!
hard ti hear with all thwme welding
sorry, couldn't slow down the work in progress.
just put air bags and ride, lose the wheels too. factory shit is nice
educating video , But why do it when the guy is welding smh
Eliminate the background noise!!
You shoukd if stopped welding just for a minute..can't deal...wiukd of probably woukd of been a great educational video other wise
Can’t hear shit with that damn welder interrupting....
Yo stop Welding can't even here
