You can easily make your own for 20 bucks if you have a welder, tape measure, grinder and cutoff wheel. After I received my Competition Engineering connectors fifteen years ago, I told myself, never again would I pay 150 bucks for what is nothing more than two four foot lengths of 1.5x2 with a flat plate on one end and a simple three sided box on the other.

I bolted mine in originally then had someone weld them later. You want the car to be as level and straight as possible when they get welded. It gave the car more stability. 1969 Y2 Super Bee 1959 Coronet 4 dr Sedan ~ I intend to live forever...so far so good! ~ TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!

A component like this really should be burned in to reduce compliance. 1972 Barracuda - 5.7L Hemi, T56 Magnum 6spd - https://www.facebook.com/GoodysGotaHemi 2020 RAM 1500 [img]https://i.imgur.com/v9yezP9.jpg[/img]
