Back in the days of TGO and Deans suspension arguments, I remember him either posting pictures, or diagrams of bracing his front a-arms.
Anyone keep this info, or has anyone done this? Thinking of doing it while I have my a-arms out. _________________ 2008 GMC Z71

IIRC, Travis (blue89) did something like that to his.
I "borrowed" an image from his Car Domain page

Dewey, I thought I had him to, but he wasnt showing up today unless he changed his name. I did send him an email if its still his valid one.
Al, Travis boxed his rears and panhard. I dont remember him doing anything to the front. |

I did it that way first and for the second iteration I plated the whole damn thing. Butt dyno says its more predictable under hard brake turning. Also boxed the rear but wouldnt recommend it without an adjustable panhard bar. _________________ E30

I knew you did the rear because we discussed that before you did it.
Just ordered my delalums. Now to find some steel plate and a press |
