Brain storming about export brace.

[pbrown]

Is a turnbuckle needed? It's by understanding that's it's just there to account for manufacturing variations from the factory. If built in the car it should fit fine and still be removable.

I saw another some time ago that was built with curved steel tubes. I can't find it now.

I have 2 cougars one is a 67, the other is a 68... 5/8 difference in width between the towers LOL... I thought I had a stroke or a brain fart but it was there... I later found that the 68 had been hit in the a frame and rocker intersection and had skewed the unibody a bit when it was "fixed" they didn't notice it because all the panels fit and the gaps looked right. I guess the moral of this in my mind is that even though I hand built both units in situ, It still was "off" once other damage was found down the road. PLUS, I like to preload mine a bit and thats not all that easy without some sort of adjustment. I guess it just my overkill mentality LOL...quarantine.jpg
