Remind me never to line up or drive next to uneasyrider on the street.

I did not understand the function of the plate either many years ago.

As you see more bad events/explosions with the stuff, you get a lot more safety minded for you and your passengers IF you are going to hammer on the car.

I blew up 5 rear axles in my life and they did not fail due to granny shifting.

What about making a larger plate that could also be a rear engine mount plate? Maybe make it .250" thick. I was thinking of doing that with the Lakewood I have. If so, I'd have a plate I'd sell to someone.

Oh stick it Tom. If I don't know and you didn't then just tell me and everyone else what you learned. Safety is the key, right...?
