I used one with my 10 bolt w/4.10's and was getting 1.8X 60' for many a pass and never had any problems.I think they are well worth the money with a stud kit.All makes are about the same.

Yeah I'd have to say get one. I can't really say if it helped me or not but it does add a little peace of mind and they are fairly cheap. They definitley are better built than the factory piece.

The carrier preload studs are nice as well, something you don't see on the other girdles.

Now if only I could get my panhard out of the way to mount the damn thing on.

They don't hurt that's for sure. You can also resell them easily if you decide to dump the 10 bolt down the road. I think mine has helped. The rear has seen high 1.40s.

Getting into two stages of nitrous less than 10' out is what makes the car 60.

I believe the king of 10 bolts is running 10.1 right now. I should catch up to him in the next few weeks.
