Looks great, I also recommend you do something with your sig so you have a link directly to your product web side. I'm pretty sure your fine product will be on my car soon...

I use to weld for 2 years so I’m not a veteran or rookie but that weld by the tape measure does not look good at all.

weld

ap53,I hope you understand that the weld you are referring to was one made by the installer not TMS. I know it can be difficult to weld over your head. Mike has told me that it is a technique that takes time to master.

may not look to good, but it does its job. 300 for weld is alot cheaper than me tryin and learnin ,so in my humble opinion, money well spent. now, what about them front side braces for 07 maxs?

braces

07 Graymax, We will eventually get to them. Since our web site has been up, the boys and I have noticed business is slowly picking up. Thanks to all here. I know Sean has them on his list, but first will be 4th and 5th. Access to these 2 cars are pretty easy for us, the 6th Gen we will have to borrow.
Glad to hear you are liking the chassis braces. I sure wish the underside on my car was as clean as yours!!

Graymax can you take better picture of that weld when you get a chance, may be it’s the picture not the weld that looks bad, just trying to help.

Dan you are right welding takes time and steady hand to master and of course good prep work.

Anyone who decides against this mod because of weight is absolutely crazy, IMO. Actually, anyone who decides against it for any reason is crazy.

Even if they were 100 pounds it would be worth it. Let the suspension take the impact from road imperfects rather than having the rest of your car take that impact. I doubt anyone would notice a 30 pound difference considering the weight of a maxima (it's less than 1% of your cars total weight).

As for install, any local muffler shop will do it. Get the car up on a lift, show the guy exactly how you want it oriented, and have him weld it. And stop worrying so much, it's not like they will be tuning a supercharger or anything!
