I was tlaking with my fabricator the other day and got an idea.....CNC Laser-cut plates for those that wish to box in their front LCA's. I would need a 2 and 4-bolt arm to make the drawings from and tyhen it's just a matter of writing the CNC program for him, and he can cut out however many are needed. I will get final pricing when i have a conceptual drawing to have quoted....but is there any interest in these? I'ld estimate ihe price to be no greater than $50 for a pair + shipping.
Start the list if you're interested.

Didnt someone offer these a long time ago? Some now defunct company like performance fords or sho shop? Just curious.
Can anyone comment on the real world effects on these? Huge difference, or not so much? Again, just curious. . . .
Man, between this and the subframe connectors, we have some great potential ahead of us (and not that much $$$)!

I think it was SHO shop, but can't remember, I do remember hearing that the metal of the LCAs is thin and very tricky to weld without warpage.

You're thinking of the rear c-shaped LCA's which are like 14ga, I'm talking about the front LCA which are much thicker.

just replaced some 4-bolt arms but I think they are long gone at this point, I will have some 2 bolt arms in the spring after they get changed out

I'll have 2-bolt arms here as soon as pete sends me his old arms for my other little experment  ...so i should be covered there. Todd, that sounds like a plan, once i've secured enough interest to make it worth while to ahve quoted, i'll contact you.
