    Upper torque box repair

    Has anyone had to deal with this? There are cheapo looking reinforcements but my floor pan (if that's what it is called in this area) is cracked not just the mount itself. I thought about going Torque Arm but my Fays 2 Watt's link clamps where the TA would have to clamp. The only sturdy looking repair panel that I know of is a Wild Rides 3.0. That one looks like its geared towards drag racers. Open for input, thanks Bruce

    Came to the conclusion that I won't get the Wild rides kit installed in time but a Griggs torque arm may be doable in time. I went to corner carvers and did some research now I am afraid to put one in. The consensus is when you put a TA in the traction is so much better that the front end pushes badly especially on the autocross type corners. Until you do the whole nine yards on the front end to catch up. I am looking to quit spending money not set myself up for more.

    Bought the Wild Rides torque box replacement. Its a very sturdy looking panel. The directions for install are a joke. Little detail and the pictures are almost illegible. I have come to have far more respect for spot welds!
