No idea. Sorry! But if the are flex points / hinges I'm seeing there that are built in I don't see the point. Not seeing link--might be I'm on mobile.
Rogue Engineering has a three point "triangle" brace. Strong Strut is the other option, but not a triangle. Be aware the Rogue install is a process not just a bolt/unbolt exercise. Lastly there are two versions of the bolts used for the firewall. Stretch bolts, one use, and nuts reusable with locktite. Torque values are different and bolts require angle torque. See this post. http://www.zpost.com/forums/showpost...0&postcount=25 I know that didn't answer the question but I'm betting the peripheral answers may be useful. |

^ I agree Ron. Hinged points are not as structurally sound.

That's the bar made by ARC (Auto Refine Co Japan). I tried to order it a while back but the wait for it was 6 plus months so I cancelled. May be worth looking into if you can wait.
