Doing a bit of research into ARB reinforcement kits for the front subframe. Any one recommend places to get them quickly at a good price?

Don't think I've seen any for sale in the uk. Only seem to be in America.

I'll be having a look at making my own when I get chance.

All the chassis reinforcers they sell could easily be made with a grinder and a drill. Admitted they won't be as good, but once welded on and powdercoated people would never know.

Plus it would be more satisfying making them yourself.

Depends if you enjoy doing steel work I guess.

there pretty easy to make, i just copied these from another post on here , only thing that might be awkward if you don't have the appropriate drill is making a hole large enough to access the mounting nuts
