Here's a link to some pictures I shot while converting my dune buggy.
http://www.netspot4u.com/~manxclub/albums/album91/ I fabricated these clip holding fixtures using an IRS pan as a template...  Hope it helps....

I have noticed when adding the conversion clips to the chasis they are angled inwards to the frame horns. Also was it necessary for you to grind away material from the clips before welding them to the frame.

Apparently, I was sold clips that were supposed to fit a smaller diameter torsion housing... Just make sure you get the right ones. Because the extra grinding is a pain in the a$$...
Here's a another link that may be helpful... http://www.blindchickenracing.com/How_to/IRSconversion/IRSconversion.htm See the cut line in the pic...

No, It doesn't stiffen up the chassis. I would recommend the stiffening brace from eyeballengineering.
http://www.eyeball-engineering.net/F...stiffners.html Or, you could fabricate your own. Here's one I did from 1 1/4 " square tubing...   The clips I got were from Vee Dub Parts Unlimited in Huntington Beach, Ca. https://www.vwparts.net/Merchant2/me...y_Code=CHASSIS Good Luck.
