I was wondering if someone could post the manufactures of some of the new after market frame re-inforcement products. I know of the obvious 10pc/swingarm kits and the original clamshells. But recently I have seen a much heavier guage clamshell kit, and an interior long/firewall kit, and it seems like I have seen 2 different types of the 10pc kit one which tied into the swing arm mounts I think? Who makes the 2 less convensional kits? And are there in fact different styles of the weld on multi-piece plate kits? Any manufactures of the above mentioned items please email me agconstruction_remodel_inc@msn.com
Thanks. Alex |

All the "stiffening kits" in the world don't equal a well built cage.....unless your car has rotted out (I see you are from Seattle), in which case, *just* replace the metal.
IMO, these kits are like fishing lures that are designed to catch fishermen's dollars. |
