As today’s vehicles become more complex, our Subframe solutions are custom built to support a wide range of architectures, one piece subframes, nodes, and hollow structure. Below are a few examples of recent Subframes we’ve created:
Front Subframe Node
Part of the subframe, which is a structural component that carries chassis and suspension loads, as well as powertrain, that attaches to the body of the vehicle.
