An Abstract of Design, Analysis and Optimization of Rear Sub-frame using Finite Element Modeling and Modal Analysis by Gaurav Kesireddy Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Science Degree in Mechanical Engineering The University of Toledo May 2017 A sub-frame is a structural component of an automobile that carries suspension, exhaust, engine room, etc. The sub-frame is generally bolted to Body in White(BIW). It is sometimes equipped with springs and bushes to dampen vibration. The principal purposes of using a sub-frame are, to spread high chassis loads over a wide area of relatively thin sheet metal of a monocoque body shell, and to isolate vibration and harshness from the rest of the body. As a natural development from a car with a full chassis, separate front and rear sub-frames are used in modern vehicles to reduce the overall weight and cost. In addition, a sub-frame yields benefits to production in that subassemblies can be made which can be introduced to the main body shell when required on an automated line.

  • SPL Solid Subframe Conversion Bushings
    © 2018 SPL Parts, Inc Solid Subframe Conversion Bushings Installation Instructions SPL SSB S13C www.splparts.com Questions?: 512-691-9002 [email protected] © 2018 SPL Parts, Inc Remove subframe and OEM subframe bushings. The OEM subframe bushings can either be pressed out or cut out. The entire OEM bushing must be removed, including all the outer metal “shells” (race). When the OEM bushing is completely removed, there should just be 1 ring of steel left that is part of the subframe itself. Press in the main bushing from the bottom of the subframe. See next page for proper orientation of bushing. To “raise” the subframe by ½”, both shims should be installed below the subframe. To “raise” the subframe by ¼”, one shim should be installed above the subframe and one shim installed below the subframe. To place the subframe at the OEM location (Formula D legal), place two .33" thick shims in the front and one .33" and one .25" thick shim above the subframe in the rear. To “raise” the subframe by .33”, place one .33" shim above and one below on the front and place one .33"shim below and one .25" thick shim above in the rear. To “raise” the subframe by .66" in the front and .58" in the rear place both .33" shims below the front of the subframe and one .33" and one .25" shim below the rear of the subframe. Optional: The supplied rubber isolators can be installed between the chassis and the subframe bushing to help dampen some noise. www.splparts.com Questions?: 512-691-9002 [email protected] © 2018 SPL Parts, Inc Bushing installation orientation For fitting S14 subframe onto S13 chassis, bushing holes should be closer to center of subframe.
