Re: Back to Frame Connectors

[Joey <jake4@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Herb, I was waiting for someone to state the obvious, I don't install 
frame connectors for looks, therefore I put in something that will be strong 
enough to work as designed. All of mine go though the floor, not only for 
extra strength but also to connect with the body channel internally and to 
use for location point for main hoop of cage. There are a couple of ways of 
installing connectors without going through the floor but I don't think the 
contoured ones are it. I am not by any means a structural engineer, just a 
guy who has been around awhile, probably too long actually.

Joey
