BMR Tubular. Fit like a glove. As a matter of fact...I had them painted with a rattle can and you have trouble seeing them if you don't know where to look..or to look. I just had a new tranny put in and the guy didn't even know I had them. Weld in's are the only way to go. Don't waste time with bolts that could become loose. Weld it and forget about it. One less thing to check on.

I don't think that the trans center piece comes with. I believe that you have to order that separately.

I have had SLP weld-on for four years. It does make a great place for the jacks.

This is a old thread.

I got the S+W racecars setup and it is nice when done with the torque arm. I like it when parts are designed to work with each other.

Didn't vote bc I don't have much experience with the other brands, but I'm running Spohn's Weld in tubular ones. They tuck up amazingly and can't be seen unless you're standing right under them when it's on a lift. Also, you can weld them their entire length if you want added rigidity, but I don't see anyone needing it.
