Next...project stiffin up

[JD1964]

The 93 vert is sloppy in the front. I mean frame flex when putting along bumpy parts in roads. It’s currently missing the cross braces and the bumper reinforcement. I hope after I install these missing parts it will stiffin up. It’s also mouthed drivers side fender skirt. That’s getting installed too.

Do you already have SFCs?

There are SFC but not full length. Basically they run from the tq box area to about 1/2 way forward

I finally got the factory x bracing and front bumper support installed. Big improvement in the sloppy steering column feel. Still not as stiff as my LX hatch but much better now!

I don’t think the bumper reinforcement will do any stiffening. That just bolts to the radiator support, that’s what holds the front end together.

Maybe not. But, the x bracing bolts to the bottom of the radiator support in close proximity to where the bumper support bolts up. As an assembly with both pieces, I think they both matter.

Now that I think about it it might. Why did you have that off anyways?

Got the car that way. Previous owners had taken stuff off

This won’t be real helpful, but boy is that a pretty car!

Are you going to get rid of your SFCs and get full length ones?

Actually, that was helpful

Not sure If I'm gonna upgrade to the full length SFC's
