Where to buy sub frame rail repair kit?
I have a 1980 camaro. On the part of the rear left subframe rail that curves up close to the wheel well there is a palm size hole from rust and I think a small one on the side. Where can I buy a repair kit for this? I have heard from some people that there are like repair kits that are sort of like sleeves that weld on but I cant find them anywhere. Can someone please help me find what I need?

Sorry I can't help with info on a repair sleeve, didn't know they made such a thing? However, I know you can get replacement frame rails without breaking the bank. Here's a link to rockauto.com, rails are $142 for a brand new rail. Not sure if this will help you but hope it does! Good luck.

Most people buy the replacement rails and either cut out the part they need, or install the whole rail. If you've got a couple good sized holes, you've probably got more places that are thin. Need to poke around with a scratch awl and see if it goes through anywhere else. If so, you need to do more than just patch.
