I agree, I got the same press release as Lee and I don't see where it is beneficial (I am going to ask them though just for curiousity). and I don't see anyone road racing a 5,000lb truck .

I am sure under high HP applications there is "SOME" flex in the frame but it's never been a problem like it has on Mustangs....which are unibody and not full frame.

There are a few hardcore road racer Lightnings, Stan Ruslow comes to mind and there are a few more that I cant remember their names. They would probabaly love this item, but we call those guys the .01% Lightning owners

Yeah, Paul and I talked about this the other night and neither one of us could really see any benefit from it.

But if you want it I will gladly sale it to you

I'm sure they've already fabbed up something to take care of what little flex there is. Plus...the KB piece is bolted on....I cant see how it would help that much...

Well, you definitely wouldn't want to weld it in there.

I guess I tend to forget how our trucks differ from a mustang.
