Torque Boxes

I'm not sure how, but I received everything from Auto Rust Tech in one day...
Besides the repairs, the goal is chassis stiffening. The Auto Rust caps will reinforce the frame rails from the rad support to the front floors. I will double the amount of spot welds at any inner structure I can reach, add inner fender braces as well as tie the upper control arm mounts to the inner fenders.

Sounds like a reasonable plan. Sorry a bit late, but I used ART's boxes as well. At the time, all that was available. You'll have to tweak for fitting.

The metal that has been torn (cracked) on my car has been the top of the trans tunnel - floorpan behind the rear seats. This is where the braces behind the seat attach to the floor, and also close to the pinnion snubber contact (if one is set up that way - I'm not anymore). I think my car's damage may be unique to the quality (lack of) on my car's assembly but worth taking a look around there.
