The short version is that it would have been much easier to install these BEFORE I installed the Unbalanced Engineering Decoupled Torque Arm. They can coexist, but it's difficult to retrofit the SFCs later. Racing season arrived, and I had to cut my losses and move on.
These are the standard 4th gen fbody 3-point bolt-ons, powdercoated black. They will not fit a convertible. They have only been loosely test-fitted. Other than one rear LCA bolt that was snugged, they have never been tightened down or "formed" to my car, and of course they have never been driven. There are a few minor scrapes in the powdercoat from shipping and test fitting. I also drilled one extra mounting hole in the center of the tunnel brace mounting tab on one side. It will be covered up by the tunnel brace and won't show. I painted the bare steel threaded nut-plates with "cold galvanizing" zinc primer and a quick top coat of black just for corrosion protection (they are hidden when installed) and substituted new grade 8 bolts (included) for the grade 5 that SLP supplied. $225 plus shipping sold This post has been edited by sgarnett: Aug 13 2006, 07:50 PM |

Sean, I'm currently thinking of a few options here but I'm quite interested. I should know in the next couple of days.

Hey Sean, I'm thinking most likely I'm going to make an attempt at shocks instead right now so if you've got any other buyers, I wouldn't hesitate to take their money. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Now that doesn't necessarily mean, though, that if I wind up shock-less and you still have 'em available I won't try to snap them up.

If it's not too late, just cut the cross bars off and weld on the "jacking rails".
Otherwise, good luck with the sale. I wish I'd bought bolt on's and then welded them. I can't keep paint on my weld on's. |
