Default 6LE Harness Bar Owners....

Hey guys, I recently got my 6LE Harness bar in the mail. I drilled the extra hole, and got it all bolted up. And I noticed the bar has a lot of flex because of where it's mounted. Has anyone reenforced the stock sheet metal to help make it a more rigid mounting location? I was thinking about welding a small triangular piece to the sheet metal, then to the wheel well. Any other recommendations? Any ideas would be great. Thanks.

I'm starting to wonder if I should just sell the thing and get a roll bar.

I got mine in and the angle caused it to lay down way to much as well as being too close to the back of the seat to use the style of seat harnesses I had. I had 6" cut out of both sides which took wieght out of the bar which significantly solidified it as well as redoing the angle of the bolt in piece, though I already had to notch the plastic below it. Works well now.

Do you have any pictures of what you did to the bracket where the harness bar bolts down?
