Mark,
Dont put the holes in them. Dimple the area that covers our stock access holes so we know where they are in case we need to cut through them, but make this area solid. Every holes weekens the part. B |

I will put a 1" hole where these are.... just finished revising the layout..... added more easy form bends- hand bend to fit the relief for the hand brake, rear 45 degree bend and across the back then weld it solid. Added the .25 rosette weld holes and made several minor fit modifications. Going to laser cut a couple of sets hopefully this week and then e-coat paint them and install. Brad - send me a pm as to where you want a set sent.

Thanks Mark. I have a car on the rack RIGHT NOW that I had planned on installing these into. I just finished replacing his control arm ear and repairing a ton of damage from a rear end collision. The frame is still weak and flexible. This kit will work GREAT for him.
We do need to work on the price however. It needs to be about 200$ out the door. B |

Yep. Wait until I tell Chris he has been running around on a bent control arm. I installed the control arm today and noticed a fat "bend" in the arm. I cant get the toe set properly now that it has a solid ear in the proper location.
I know how much the car means to him.. but I would have bought another tub (even if it has personal value.) B |
