Default changing from ally tub to GRP

Can anyone tell me what needs altering on a chassis designed to take an ally tub to suit the GRP tub?

Cheers Will

I know the rear tub tubes have to be removed and I think there is an extra bit added at the bottom but damned if I can find a thread showing it!!!

Hopefully someone will be along shortly to elaborate

I think Equinox have a GRP tub that goes over the rear chassis rails and therefore no modifications required, could be wrong though.

that's the indication I was given when I picked up my equinox bodywork, haven't fitted it yet though.
