    I like the Wild Rides kits but even back when we were just bugger fabbing pieces in there it made a huge difference, no more torn floor pans LOL.

    looks so much easier with an extra set of adult hands. i had my 8 year old daughter hold the bolt topside while i jammed the nut on from the bottom. it was a challenging install to say the least! haha

    Good to see you up, out and about. Looks like you're healing up good too. How are the other guys doing and the shop? Hear back from the insurance companies yet? I have a torque box kit ready to be installed. My car has an AOD, so it's not getting hit as hard out of the hole. I believe, I'm not an expert. I only play one 24/7...lol.

    • @SpeedAddict731

  • @randylanhart1796
    @randylanhart1796 5 років тому

    A question for y'all. On the torque box reinforcement video, the upper plate bolts protrude quite far into the cabin. This seems to be ok for the notch back. But how does this work in a 82 4 eye 3 door hatch back? Will the fasteners interfere with the seat folding flat? Can you put the fasteners in the other way ( ie. Bolts going down, nuts on the bottom?)

  • @goodfellasinc.5648
    @goodfellasinc.5648 3 роки тому

    Why would you guys not flip the bolts to the bottom inside where you can't see them instead of having them exposed and in the way of everything is this your first time working on a car just asking

      I thought the same thing when i did mine. Then i realized they say that in the instructions for a reason. I had a hard time with the wrenches when i flipped the first side.

  • @MissionRestomod

    Any reason why you wouldn’t go ahead and seam weld the torque boxes while in there? I’d weld in the reinforcements too. Just a thought.

    • @MissionRestomod

    Must be a guy thing... .. . ever since I was a kid whenever my parents had work done on the house I would always sit quietly and watch the repairman fix whatever was broken and politely ask a question or two.. I didn't have the blessing of having a mechanically inclined dad teach me about that kinda stuff.. My blessing was having parents well off enough to pay for things like that.. Regardless I just like watching professionals do their work..
