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

Lol no i doubt it! Mine was the same the guy that did mine had to make them from scratch and had to be perfect if u want ur car to drive straight and good since it has to do with suspension

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.

What's the general going price for installing the torque boxes and seam welding the factory ones? Mine are damn near perfect but I wanna get em ready for track use.
