He told me about $250 including the SFCs. He explained how they install them, they are very methodical in making sure the chassis is nice and straight before welding them in. You don't want just anybody that has a mig welder lying around slapping them on there for you, because if the chassis is bent or twisted slightly when they are welded in it is stuck like that.

This is very true, I forgot about that. Do you know if Don has the stuff on site to straighten a frame or would it have to be sent somewhere?

No he doesn't do body work, but he makes sure the car is supported properly so the chassis is straight before welding. If your chassis is not square to begin with that's another story.
