Default Re: C4 Chassis Stiffeners from Killebrew

Forum member -=Jeff=- is running them, I believe. He seems to be happy with them.

I installed a convertible x-brace and am very happy with the improvement in overall feel of the chassis, and reduction in shakes and rattles. I am curious to compare the difference but not willing to drop $500 to do so.

I wonder how it would do with both? Or are the attachments in the same place?

Now let's see, if you used these braces, plus a convertible brace, plus one of those stiffeners for the Targa bar to windshield frame, plus a four point roll cage, that sucka would be damn rigid.

But you'd probably have added an extra 100 lbs. of unwanted weight.

Very interested to hear your positive result. The rules I race under would allow this addition, as I can use any part on any C4. Any chance you have pics, especially near the headers?

Best,

Hey Jeff, I don't have any pictures -- but I may have some time in the next few days to jack the car up to take a few pics for you.

Next time you're under it that would be awesome. I'll be looking forward!
