Brad, what did they want for shipping via USPS, if you don't mind me asking? It's coming to your place in Barrie?
Thx Brad. Does that stuff need to be run through a broker to get here?
Go figure. I just got my XV braces welded in last month, and I am about ready to paint my engine compartment. Then a superior product at a cheaper cost comes out with more tire clearance for a lowered front end. Now I wonder if I should cut them off and put these US cartool ones on just to make sure the tires will clear, before I paint. ?
I know what I would do, especially at the point your car is at...... More clearance gives you more tire options down the road?
I agree with Brad, you also have to look at the big picture, what the factory did was a quick fix for a shoddy body integrity problem using that thin sheetmetal brace they had. Using the curved steel tube like the XV works but triangulating the cowl and the inner fender is much stronger. This is also why I didnt use any curved down bars on my roll Cage . For the low price US Car tool has on these braces, its a no brainer ,not even worth making yourself IMO.
Would have been alot easier if I hadn't just painted the engine compartment just 3 days before seeing these.
Well, after long sleepless nights I went ahead and ordered the braces. Would have beenalot easier if I hadn't just painted the engine compartment just 3 days before seeing these.
Braces arrived today. I know what I'm gonna do this weekend. You get yours yet Brad?
