ebay has'em for that cheap. I didn't see the point with going brand name for something like that. Some have said mine are better than the brand names.

I still need to give Rick a call and order some upper and lower torque boxes.

yeah the mustang club around here had a swap meet and i picked it up for 50 used. I don't think he knew what he had, i have heard so many good things about dugan racing so as soon as he said that i jumped on it.

I know that thing was so sick and the funny thing was it wasn't even his. All it needed was clear corners and it would be perfect, also did you hear what he said about the clear corner idea he goes " to much white for me" me and ceece were laughing.

I got my STB through Stangnet..was a blem, but sill looked good for $75.

With a STB and SFC the car will stiffen up considerably. Mine felt like a different car once installed. Thens there's the k-frame brace as well.

Congrats and enjoy!!!
