Tunnel is bent by foot rest

[DetroitViper]

I have a '03 Viper and I bought the sled wrecked and had to replace the bulkhead which I have already done. The question that I have is where the right side trailing arm bolts to the tunnel is a little kinked not to bad, totally rideable, just wondering if there is anything that I can put on to make that area a little stronger, such as new running boars or any other product. Thanks

Cut a board to match the area and pound it back down. Buy Bender Racing's trailing arm brace kit and a pair of Rox Sled Treads and it will be extremely rigid. Been there done that!
It will cost around a couple hundred bucks, but you probably won't have to worry about bent footwells anymore.......just bent trailing arms.

Thats how I got my wifes 99' Vmax so cheap, If its not bent bad enough to effect the suspention alignment just ride it and be happy.

I put the bender racing trailing arm kit on my viper.. Seems to have stiffened up the running boards where the trailing arms meet fairly good.

Do you have the part number for Bender Racing's trailing arm brace kit?
my dealer can't find it and the Bender web site doesn't seem to contain very much stuff.

Thanks

Give the folks at Bender a call. It was in a brochere I just got from them, so I'm sure they still stock it.
