I looked into building my own rotisserie.   I was going to use old front wheel drive wheel hubs and CV axle shafts for the pivots.   Mainly cause I had a set of axle shaft ends already cleaned up.  You are not supposed to roll fwd bearings without preload on them.  I use to use those in my shop to temporary roll car bodies without the drive trains in them.

I was going to combine it with an old automatic flex plate so the amount of turn could be controlled.

Anyways gave up on the idea and bought a rotisserie from northern tool when they were on sale AND the gift card rebate.

Edit:  I just went and looked at your link.  One thing I can tell you right off the top from experience is that design is going to be a bi--atch to get under the car body.   Think about it!   The store bought in one I have goes under the front and rear then links with a square tube in the middle.  Which also makes it useable for more than one model of car.

Not sure what you mean on a differnt kind. I know they have tons of options with different vertical posts with locking hubs. But most all the rotisseries ive see bolt on similar to this. Im not sure how youve mounted your car up. Now id like to see it. When I was working at a Restoration shop. I mounted a 68 and a 69 mustang to rotisseries. Both were similar mounted on the front on the front bumper mounts then the 68 in the back mounted under the valance and mounted on the location drain holes in the trunk floor. I did not like the way that rotisserie rotated. The 1969 mach 1 428cj car. The front mounted on the front bumper location then the rear mounted on the taillight panel through the rear bumper mount holes. Forgot about the 1967 Shelby GT:500 it also mounted the same as the 1969 mach 1. Not the same spacing on bolt holes but similar set up. The other rotisserie rotated alot better on the 1969 and 1967. One rotisserie had one side with the locking hub and the other side was tube on tube with two bolts to lock it in the location you like no other prevention. The other rotisserie didnt have any locking hubs only used bolts to lock it down in place. Im not really a fan of the bolt being tightened down on the tube for locking the car in place. I did see a thread for a rotisserie for a mustang. And it was set up like a rectangle then had veritcal post with tube on tube for pivot used bolts to lock in place was made of trailer reciever tubing.

4 jack stands at about 23" up under the rockers. Then have my rotisserie Upright post be adjustable down to atleast that height some do. My jig is is 43" wide.
