I installed a set of ChassisWorks Ladders on my 62 Chevy II. Did the same thing,only used the rear sub frame as the support for the coil-over cross tube . I cut out 1/4" plates,cut same hole size as cross tube and welded those on the ends,and bolted them thru the sub frame in back,than welded the plates on after I was sure the fit was correct.My rear sub frame is now connected with sub frame connectors ...
