    Howdy,

    Hey I just installed my "race" (read: Heim joint) J&M LCA's and the adjustable J&M UCA last week and I was thinking a lot of the fox body guys spend a lot of time and energy making sure their torque boxes don't tear off.

    Has anybody heard about this being a problem on S197's? I can't find any information on here or google about anybody reinforcing or welding them. The last thing I need is a body side LCA mount tearing off under power. That would ruin my day, and quite a few of my subsequent days as well.

    Thanks for any info.

    No this is not a problem with the S-197 however CHE does make a tubular UCA mount to replace the factory stamped mount. PM if you're interested in one
