[quote=“lmoorefx” post=73149]No big deal, I should have looked at the rules, but my main question still exists, has anyone done this?
Thanks guys.[/quote]Yes, it’s been done. It’s not common tho.
Ouch. Dang, I said that? My moral high ground seems to be evaporating.
I’ve got the reinforcements on my car too, but I have the AKG parts which look exactly the same as these. AKG had them on sale and Garagistic wasn’t around yet. There is a time in the build or just when replacing worn parts on your car that removing the front subframe is just a couple extra steps. The first 6 years of my cars track life I didn’t run them and my subframe didn’t suffer, but I’ve seen pics on the forums of stock M42 cars cracking the subframe at the motor mount. So it’s really just cheap insurance, especially if you are planning on running solid motor mounts.
Well we have them in stock. We also offer the tig weld service or a subframe “trade in”. Give us your original undamaged sub frame and get a reinforced sub frame (powder coat option is available too). We are located in huntington beach CA.
