Torque box kit
I have a upper and lower torque box kit from upr. I know that the rear seat and the rearend and all that has to come out. My ? is how hard is it to install these? Do you guys recommend welding both upper and lowers or just the uppers? Any feed back would be great. Thanks

We installed these yesterday. Welding up the lowers in that small ass hole they fit in is going to be a bitch!
