Wild Rides G body ARB

[Mike Allred]

I came across an application specific ARB on ebay made by Wild Rides. Has anyone tried this? The company's website looks respectible... The ARB doesn't weld in between the frame rails -- it's welded to the stock crossmember. I ordered it and we'll see.. I report back!

interesting, wonder how well that works, how strong is the that crossmember? wonder if it ever interferes with the upper control arms

Keep us posted, that looks like it might leave exhaust tail pipe clearance

 

[boostinmalibu]

it says right on there it wont fit with over axle tail pipes

I'm only putting down 500 horses or so and I believe the ARB will stay welded to the stock crossmember. I may find a way to brace it. It looks sturdy and the ebay price was $225. What the heck. I want to keep the stock gas tank for ballast purposes and this ARB is well out of the way for that. Now to relocate the radiator to the bed for more ballast...

oh...and "only 500 horses".... :lol: i wish i had 500!!!

I like the way these mount and they don't interfere with Tailpipes.> http://www.hrpartsandstuff.com/products/rearend/swaybar.htm
