Is there a such thing as replacement torque boxes? I ask because mine were completely torn off the frame.

So I should just get the reinforment N get it put in? My boy pounded it back to shape N welded it as best as he could. I mean it feels WAYYYY better than it has ever felt since I've had this car.

Yeah he was telling me he can probably make some from scratch. But he also recomended to order the reinforment kit N he'll install them for me.
