I will post up some pics of the steel square tube sub after I am through with it. Oh yeah and I drilled the mounts out in my frame and took a steel round tube that is tapped for threads from on side to the other. You can only do this on the front mount the back one I put the same steel bar on it about 3 inches, almost touching the shock and welded it to the front bar with stell 1/4 plate. It kind of ties on side of the frame to the other and hopefully will keep it from brakeing tabs with my new steel subframe!:YEAH

lol.maybe but I hit it hard a few times and did long scrapes on round bar.the reason it normaly brake is cuz of normal square bar,when u crash on side it twists it,no problem with round one.and all bars r the same,get one u can get best deal on.it;s just peace of steal....

So that 3 brakes. None of which where from scraping straight...
The ones who are saying they're breaking them on her, are hitting them too hard, and they aren't reienforced correctly...
Do 1 square toob and weld to attach the two sides togeather.. Weld and aluminum plate running along both insides of the subframe.. Bolt support straps from psgr pegs to rearsets.. Beef up or fill in the back side of the tabs with weld.
