Welding Torque Boxes.

So it's near 2am and I'm out spending time with my foxbody. So I have the rear sway bar, springs, quads, shocks, and lower controll arms out and I am about to install the HPM's but I am going to wait until tomorrow morning to run to home depot and get some washers for around the bolt holes and a wire wheel so I can get the boxes welded. Anyone else reinforced thier boxes like this???

Sort of. This was the suggestion from the guy at Motorsport-depot told me works well from experience. I just thought, since I was in there and all, why not? Torn out TQ boxes suck.

I'm going to wait on my uppers to get here before I put it togeather. With everything out and the rear end houshing supported by a jack and the upper controll arms it is amazing that you can pry on one end of the axel houshing and bend the uppers by hand. I couldn't imagine what a launch at the track does. The controll arm bushings on the lower were cracking but in overall good shape. The rear sway bar is too dinky, I might get a thicker replacment. I plan on some Lakewood 50/50's in the back but the KYB Gas-adjusters are good for now.
