Advice needed

[np630ss]

I'm going to be installing the Breeze 3 link brace soon. I can't decide which is the easiest route to take. Remove the rear end? Remove the trunk sheet metal? Remove the rear cockpit wall? The brace will be bolted in not welded. Any advice is appreciated.

I'm a welding fan and I would at least put some 1/2-1" weld near the bolts. No scientific reason. As far as installing the brace no idea ..Anyone??? Bob

If you siliconed all you're panels on like the direction said, you're better off dropping the rearend.

For higher horse power and especially big block builds they are recommended.

I haven't done the Breeze brace but I've done two 3 kink retrofits so similiar experience. The only real problem is the bolts that go up into the crosswise 2x3 tube. How do you get a nut on them and hold it while tightening? What I did was put the bolts into that tube so they hang w/ the threaded part below the tube. Took a while w/ the bolt taped to a stick so I could work it into position. Don't make the tape too strong. I got it into position, hand installed the nut, not tight, and pulled my stick til the tape let go. So I ended up w/ two bolts hanging out of the 2x3 tube. Install the brace, loosely install the nuts, tighten up the bottom set of nuts/bolts, and then hit the top nuts w/ an impact wrench. I was lucky, a few short blasts of the impact wrench got the bolts to quit spinning and the nuts to tighten. i figured, if that didn't work, I'd need to make some kind of extra long wrench but it was fine. BTW,make sure beforehand that the nuts thread onto the bolts real easily by hand, and lube the bolt threads and the nuts w/ oil before installing the nuts. HTH

Any reason why? Never heard of this brave before and my 3link gets delivered this week.

There have been instances reported of the banana bracket twisting the frame mount.
