Rear Truck Chassis Opinions, box or X brace - 03/25/11 07:04 PM
Looking to stiffen up the frame a little on my truck with the new motor going in. Looking to put down about 700rwhp so not sure how far I need to take the Chassis. I already have an 8 point roll bar in it that will get me to 10.00, which is about where I want to be, should be able to hit 9's pretty easily. As for the Chassis, it is boxed from the factory all the way to the end of the cab then it goes to C channel. So should I have a couple of Chromoly X braces put in or have the frame boxed in. I attached a couple pictures of what is in there now. The stock brace that was over the stock tank will be taken out when I go ahead and do the rest.
This is an older picture, but shows the brace that is going to get cut out well.
