do you have plans or a cut guide for your cradle you built? I've been thinking about doing the same thing with my car.

I'll be working on the car this weekend. I'll get the measurements for you then.

Thanks Tedd. I still have a long way to go before it gets to that status. But I'll keep at it.

In hopes of finding a "nice" rad saddle, and not finding one, I decided to just make one.
I whipped this up, cut on the laser and formed on the brake. Just for something to do of course. Lol.
Ooh, aah, stainless too! No crusty crap here any more.


















As you can see, the small amount of clearance. I made this rad saddle as wide as possible. (Think larger radiator.)

That's some very nice work. I wish I had access to that kind of equipment. Sweet...

Nice job displaying your work. I am thinking you could easily sell some things, like cradles and rad supports for example....

I get more interested in this thread every time I check back, good work!

Why not reproduce your cradles radiator mounts and such for sale, you'd sell enough to make your fiero twice or more.

You could become the "Rodney Dickman" for cradles

make different mounts for 4, 6 and V8s.... welded painted and ready for usage. would make life a LOT easier it you have a rusted cradle and such.

Give it a thought!!

not a bad idea, but, it'd be hard/expensive to ship, also, as much as they would probably cost, must of the fiero community would probably say no way.
