What we used to do is called a cage over frame setup. Basically your build your cage with some points that tie  into the mounts for your leafs. It makes a very solid car. However if your rules don't allow that you might want to look for another car...if you try to fix that you'll end up with a car that will flex and break alot! Those cars can be found in fact I have one laying in my back yard myself!
