Forgive me or just delete this post if it's not a place for this talk. I was wondering if too much bracing is too much. I remember driving home in my new 04 FX and noticing some wheel hop on corners right off the lot. Can it ever be too dangerous being too tight?

^ from my understanding, bracing will minimize body flex and transfer that energy to the suspension. sounds good to me, my only concern was from a crash :eek.:

Nice. Yeah, my rear GTSPEC bars are much lower and I've never hit anything on the road -- even with being lowered on H&R's.
Good to know you can provide spacers if needed.
Is there an authorized vendor of GTSPEC products that can do a group buy? Would love to save some money on MSRP
+1, thanks for the update GTSPEC!

That's right. You're the one that started all this mess
Can eye getta BUMP???
Wait - you already ordered the mid chassis brace??? Didn't know they were taking orders - how did IS miss this and not have an order thread going??? I know there was a GB list - or maybe it was an interest list? Anyway I was on that list and I still want the mid-chassis brace!!! Guess I need to call GTSpec...

We have to redesign this brace to mount on different chassis mounting points. The first version mounting points was a bit weak (using use M10 bolts).
The new revision (though smaller) has better mounting points then the first version.

very small differences about 2" from each side, so not much less.

We will supply spacers for those who needed extra clearance. There are plenty of ground clearance.
