I think welding is plenty good. I run 9's for many years in my '87 before I welded them

The housings on these cars flex alot, I weld the tubes and add axles but would like to see a better solution for tube bracing. Post up some pics when you come up with something. I have not seen anything that supports the tube far enough out from the center in my opinion.

i think i might get a tube and start at the bottom of the pumpkin right behind the diff cover and bend it up to the tubes and weld it there as a brace
