DaddyBuiltRacing Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 ok so as many of you know i broke my crossmember on friday. Now I have found 2 options...I can pick up the same bar only this time with traction bars but to have it here by friday (maybe, but likely monday) it will be over 400bucks, or I can get the same cross member without traction bars here by thursday for 302. I need the bar by friday because I start a new job on monday and pinky is my dd. So do I take the risk and spend the extra 100bucks for traction bars, or play it safe and buy the one garunteed to be here by thursday for 100bucks less...grr! Heres the one without traction bars: http://tornactive.rpmware.com/innovative-mounts/innovative-crossmember/59111/i-148991.aspx And the one with: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/59311-2.jpg The one with traction bars actually has 2 advantages, it has more ground clearance then the other one and has the traction bars. I just dont know if its worth the 100 extra bucks and risk of it not being here in time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted June 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Yeah im thinking that, but i'm going to call swapshopracing.com tomorrow and see if they can garuntee it to be here by friday. Thats where i bought the last one at. Also I noticed that the one with traction bars doesnt sit so low to the ground as the other one did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted June 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 I would never hired someone with a pink car. Shit i'd never hire someone with a mustang, i'd take my chances with someone with a honda compared to someone with an unreliable ass ford 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GMoney Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Why are you asking us? We are gonna of course tell you the wrong answer. I don't even know about your Honda. Just that it can't be too great if it's pink and the cross member falls off driving down the road. So with that said i deff think that your DD needs more ground clearance and traction bars! Take a taxi to work your first day or bum a ride! That's what i would do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
