Installed No Flex Frame Stiffener Bar System
Very interesting day yesterday....
Installed a new No Flex Frame Stiffener Bar System and to be honest I was very skeptical before installing it. Saw it 2 years ago and wondered "IF" it would make a huge difference. Finished installing the kit about 8pm and drove around for about an hour after it. My car did have a little squeaking and rattling (it has 82k miles) and after, MINIMAL.... Turns were much tighter! Need to drive it much more extensively and play with the tightening bars more. So far, very impressed! http://www.vette2vette.com/product/8...ner-bar-system I did call the makers of the no flex system and they are interested in giving a system away @ Corvettes of Carlisle! So another reason to come to Carlisle! More free bee's! They said they would also do a group buy once or twice a year as well (Just for us) David |

Re: Installed No Flex Frame Stiffener Bar System
Love it. Made a big difference the moment I drive it. I have had it for 4 years now I think.. forgot what life was like without it

Re: Installed No Flex Frame Stiffener Bar System
Any pictures of this on the car and does it hang down too much?

Re: Installed No Flex Frame Stiffener Bar System
Jason is a really good Corvette guy. Visited his place the other day picking up some parts for my interior conversion. This may be something to look into. Wonder if it makes any difference in putting power down at the track?

Re: Installed No Flex Frame Stiffener Bar System
You guy do know that Gordon Killebrew designed it right?

Re: Installed No Flex Frame Stiffener Bar System
Speaking to Jason, I didn't get the impression it was Killebrew?
