I put a ford racing cover on my last straight axle gt and fought with it always weeping on the garage floor. I figured if this one isn't leaking why mess with it. If running a brace is good enough for jimmy sidecarr, it's good enough for me. Do you have a picture of the cover that broke with a brace? The brace is beefier than i thought it would be.People have broke diff covers with stock hp. Heck mine leaked with stock hp. I've seen a post a couple years ago with a cracked cover with a brace on it. I personally would have saved up for a different cover. A fill and drain plug, along with main cap bolts make it worth the investment.
Nothing wrong with that if we all had the same it would be boring. What are you doing with the F-100 project? Coyote? Love F-100's.

Wow, just when I was feeling good about my car you had to post this. Thanks! LOL. I revert to my Jimmy sidecarr comment
The brace is better than nothing. But since you had it out, that would have been the time to upgrade. Just make sure you run a stickier tire to help prevent wheel hop.Wow, just when I was feeling good about my car you had to post this. Thanks! LOL. I revert to my Jimmy sidecarr comment
I run drag radials and never feel wheel hop. If I have to replace the cover and sell the brace in a year or two I'm ok with that. Cars without rust are so easy to work on, its almost cheating.The brace is better than nothing. But since you had it out, that would have been the time to upgrade.

HAHA looks good. I told my self I would never do it again after my first cobra. But then after selling that car and getting another one I had to have the polished exhaust again!Polished the catback. Took a solid 7 hour by hand and I think I lost like 20 pounds in the process, lol. Never again!
