Just wondering if anyone else is using one of these? It's an adjustble bar between the top of the shock towers in the trunk.

There is flex there, but tying both together would not really stop it.
Weld up the shock towers (Jeroen did a great article on that) And if you really want, tie the shock towers to the transmission cross member....that does help. rich |
