or tell me. im intrested in chassis braces that are different. i found a huge factory g-load brace from a old 1988 lincoln lsc & a 2 point g load brace from a 1987 t bird. i took those braces & bought a 4 point brace fom kb & installed them, now i have 3 g load braces. i took the frame rails off of an old bed frame & installed them under the car behind the pinch weld <the place u set ur jack> . anything like that id like to know thanks
show me your braces

yes an old bed frame. the metal is thick & is really strong. to install it i drilled holes thru the pinch weld & inside the car i drilled holes down. i used nuts & bolts to secure it. i also welded it. covered it w/ undercoating you can hardly see if anything was done. now there is a better & stronger place to put my jack under
Post pics.
yeah gotta see this..
I only have the Steeda strut tower brace and the k member g-trac brace. I doubt you want to see those?
Not so much. It's sd3021's Mad Max wackifab arrangement that just has to be seen to be appreciated.
I'm picturing an Erector Set from when I was a little boy. Lol
sorry but i dont have any way of taking pics. its just lengths of angle iron bolted & welded to the body & pinchweld. it almost runs from wheelwell to wheelwell. for example, you know the kenny brown matrix kit, the one piece of bar that u weld to the pinchweld its like that
Bedframes are generally unhardened mild steel at best...
I've been very happy with my MM 4-pt K brace.

sounds like a troll to me
u make no sense. take your negative crap somewhere else
Your design sounds similiar to factory convertible braces that were riveted to the pinch weld. I think that's more work then just bolting a set of subframes on.
Me too. Hangs down a little low and thwarts me from entering some car washes, but I'd rather do it right by hand anyway.
Actually, Lee is one of the more prominent and long standing members of this board. What you've essentially just done is walked into someone else's living room, pissed on his carpet and told him to leave.
I'm still in some disbelief that someone would put old bed frames onto a 93 cobra. I understand they may not flex w/ 175lbs but the stresses of a car exhibit much more force than that. Sounds like you just bolted dead weight onto the bottom of a limited production car.

to tell u the truth i dont care who Lee is. i started this thread to see if anybody done anything different from the norm of braces. so i think he walked into my space first.
