Thanks, actully i did notice the difference cuase i dont have it on the car yet for good. just got it fit up and stuff. but i allready had a strutbrace just wanted a thincker one that i can say i built. it took 3 days but it i just spent my time focused on it it woulda taken 1 day since it was a simple design, and the tooling is endless in the shop.
i used 1/4 inch flat stock. 1 inch, 1/4 thick wall tube, 1 inch solid for the ends and used the lathe(sp) to drill out and thread to proper size, lots of mesureing. to much time spent on cuting(cuase the person i had plasma one of the tower plates cut soshity so i had to fix his cuts, then cut the other my self and sped eveything u from there)
i wanted to make a tri bar like i have but just wanted to get it done so i get start my cage monday.
Thanks again
