Seems like a small bolt in the rear to absorb all that force? Other than that, these look really nice. Have any plans for a torque arm relocation kit?

These are weld in units so the bolt does nothing once they are welded in place. The only reason we captured the bolt was to reinforce the torque box area.

We do have plans to have a full torque arm kit along with relocation kits.

So what are your trying to accomplish by doing this every chance you get? Does it matter if he does own both and sells the same part under both names? Does that in any way affect the quality of the part? Or maybe there's something I missed that you are trying to point out without coming out and saying it?
