    Default Mustang torque boxes

    What is the best way to do them? Any good sites on different ways of doing them. I want to go with through the floor sub-frame connectors too. Heard something about running the SFC into the torque box but not sure.

    Thanks

    Battle Boxes provide an excellent base for other frame-stiffening components such as subframe connectors and rollcages. You can route your cage’s rear bars to connect to the upper support of the Battle Boxes. The Battle Boxes will go a long way in ensuring that you’re prepared. "Its hip 2 b square"!

    i need to get this done on my car, im guessing i probably should just drop the $120 on the UMI kit instead of trying to take a cheaper route?

    The only cheaper way would be to weld all around the OEM torque boxes......and that would only be cheaper if you can weld yourself.

    You don't even need the reinforcement unless you drag race on a slick.
