If I recall, it was Rich Johnson who suggested cross tubing the arms. I thought it was an excellent idea to prevent twist. Unfortunately I had picked up a set of the std arm kits on eBay dirt cheap so I went that route instead.
I know a lot of people frown on the reinforce kits but with 300hp and sticky 245 tires, I felt something should be done so I did what seemed appropriate for my build......time will tell As far as the driving goes.....I test drove the car before it went to paint (no doors, hoods, or windshield). I wanted to make sure there were no major mechanical problems to deal with after the exterior was painted and the engine needed to be trial run before warranty runs out. Bottom line....couldn't check the arm stiffness but it did scare the shit out of me.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) |
