There are a couple of options - Get a rock toy ring from someone here or on Outers, then weld it ontp some other braces.. Or, buy a Might Kong bracket. That is the most expensive option at the moment because the dollar is so bad against the greenback. |

I am. Welded the stock arms to it, and braced the stock arms. It's a bastard to fit in if you have no body lift. A little info here |

i have 6.5s in my zuk with flatbar welded to my standard arms to stop twist.I am still using standard rubber mounts,but have 3 spare ones in the car that i made out of polyurethane.i watched a mate split his case so i got a roctoy ring and welded it to my existing arms,with a few extra little pieces.dont know how much it helped,but so far so good. I only run 31s and a cig rear locker,guess it depends on how you drive |
