    Home made through the floor for ground clearance. Welded to the torque box in the rear and the floor supports up front with plates on each side for good measure.

    I was wondering how you liked the Allston's after having them for awhile. I was thinking of getting a set.

    I do like em. They fit well out of the box and stiffened the car up considerably. And the bolt holes are great for plug welds. I did weld em in...
