Does anyone make reproduction touque boxes for 1971-72 b-body charger and roadrunners? Looking for stock style. Any info would be great.

They are simple flat pieces with no bend. It has 2 slots for welding to the shackle perch. The other end is butted to the sub-frame and welded to create a box-section. The center hole is most likely a tooling hole that can serve as a drain hole... Click for a larger image.

Allways appreciate your good feedback when you post (like the rear swaybar for a dana 60 you posted a few months back).

The front ones you can get from Wilson, they already make them so there is no need for us to make em... thats the only type of torque box we dont make. We have all other reproduction factory style for all body platforms (A, B and E) in stock. They are accurate to original. www.restorick.com
