Rear subframe.

Good call, and it looks like enough for several, if that's what they are......

Hmmm....that is a very clever, simple design. Me like.

I was on their page today, and noticed that they dropped the price of the lightweight subframes by 100 bucks. I am so thankful for that.

I am hoping that one day they will do a rear subframe.

Shandelle at V8Roadsters will be setting up a group buy for these in a week or 2, and he will be giving a set away to one of the lucky winner, so keep an eye on the forum and facebook page this month!!

Curious, what is the advantage to these over say the GarageStar ones that were also just released...and others on the market...price, weight, proven design???

From what i was told over the phone these are made using square tubing unlike the rectangular. That offers a stiffer unidirectional strength. The brace is mounted as close to the frame as possible. Meaning less flex along the brace. IIRC the weight is 2.5 Lbs
