Default 20 Years at Burkhart Chassis

Yep, we opened in 1989. This marks 20 years in business for us. To celebrate we are announcing a 10% off sale on all of the parts we make. This will be good through the end of April.

Bumper Supports
Rear end housings
K Members
and so on.....

Just mention the Anniversary sale when you call and order.

Congrats on the 20yrs...

Definately recommend the front bumper support - it is a bad *** light setup and the front bumper is solid as a rock. For $250ish I couldnt even pay my local chassis shop to fab something similar for that price.

Thanks for all the kind words. We do not make LT1 Firebird supports yet. We have not had one in to use as a prototype.

I think I have all of the PMs answered. I've been dealing with Identity Theft for a bit and it's time consuming.

Does the front bumper support come with install hardware? I trashed all my stuff when I took the stock one out.
