    TORQUE BOX REINFORCEMENT PLATES

    I use the upper and lower reinforcements by UMI performance at UMI PERFORMACE.COM and believe them to help over just welding up the stock boxes. I also use the UMI Performance "southside replacement" lower control arms, so I'll let you know soon how well it all holds up. thanks Jack
