Is welding the upper torque boxes going to help, or should I just put in the battle boxes?

Will just welding them help out at all?

Welding does help, and its cheap.

The upper comtrol arm mounts are held on there by a couple of spot welds...I've seen these break...If you can weld them up before they break you will be savin yourself a big headache!....

The battle boxes help reinforce the already thin/weak metal used on the torque boxes..

yes jeff, i can weld them up for u in two weeks when i am back, but u need to look for a stock radiator shroud and clutch fan in ur boxes of stock parts, i dont want to deal with wiring that electric fan in, and think how easy it will be with my lifts, hehehe

Man I JUST threw away my stock fan shroud! My mom even asked me if I needed it anymore and I said no. FUCK! Oh well, hopefully you have one right Jeff??

I will look, and thanks dude, I will really appreciate it. I wish I had a 2000sq ft garage with the lifts in my backyard. Dude you are one lucky bastard. If i cant find it, I will help you go get one at the junkyard.

Does anyone know if the battle boxes can be installed on a already welded upper torque box? [Confused]
