I am waiting on my buddy who can weld to take a ride with me to the garage so I can get mine on...I bought a set of the UPR full-lengths

I was under there today doing my control arms...and I was suprised to see the seat bolts were at an angle. I thought they would be straight so the subframe connectors can bolt right onto them...I guess they are bent a bit to accomodate...

btw, get those ones like he has w/ the t bracing for the seats, foxes are prone to ripping through sheet metal from the right bolt on the left seat (and opposite for the rt (pass) side)

hpm's are like that not sure which he had, great pics too , nice job

if you can weld good, yes easy to make, 90% of people who "think" they can weld, cannot

they can put metal onto metal, but not actually bond it well , and the weld breaks , just my opinion though, for $89 i just buy them
