Hey Guys, I installed my Aussie bar about 6/mo ago. Over time there has been some clunking going over certian bumps and such. I used the Stock Brackets to hold the bar on (Didnt have the welder at the time). Well I got sick of the noise and got under the car and tried to tighten up the bolts (thought it was loose) I snapped the head off of it! So I got the Brackets that came with the Aussie Bar and got them put on. I had the guy weld up some steel next to the stock backing plate (He doubled up some 1/4" thick stuff) The he drilled some bolts into the backing plates and then screwed the new Brackets on. Wow! What a difference. No more clunking or nearly as bad sqeeking. Nice difference. I paid him about $40 to do it.. What a well job he did. I just wanted to let you guys know that it makes a nice difference to use the supplied Brackets as oppossed to the Stock crap.
Thanks,
Joe
