Front frame rail stiffening kit.

We all know toys have semi weak frames. Know for cracking, can watch twist under steering load with larger tires ect.

Say a couple plates for both sides and tubes for the box if you decide to move it. Make them from motor mounts forward and able to tie into the ft hanger.

Just a idea. I have never seen one marketed for both sides that also supports the spring hanger.

FROR makes them for Tacomas but I havn't seen them for earlier trucks.

Yeah I saw that awhile ago. Heck I just figured it would be a good idea cause it would be cheap to make once figured out and frames are known for cracking.

they should have braces for the front hanger, that goes back to the framerail
also i have seen someone make a bolt in brace that connects the steering box mount to the idler arm mount on an sas'd ifs frame.

We are doing a Solid Axle Swap at the shop now. When we install the hanger we are going to look at now we can change teh front hanger to brace the frame to prevent cracking.

ya i really need to run some tube underneath the framerail into the hanger to reinforce it, but it seems like it will take a little more work to notch some tube to make it fit cause part of the hangar is in the way. im sure you know what im talking about.
