Many people use both the Pfadt brace and our brace. They have two different functions.

Thats going to be a rough install on a stone driveway!!

We have 6 C5 manual braces left, we just had an unexpected large order placed last week that cleared us out, so after those 5-6 sell, we will have a two to three week wait until we are restocked from today.

I need a C5 manual brace - do I just call to order and reference the forum price? Thanks!

Chris gets in around 7-7:30 a.m. and the office is answering phones till about 6 p.m. Mon-Fri.

Just give the shop a call and reference this thread.



BTW guys, we are a Pfadt distributor at the deepest discount, tell us what your looking for and we'll work with you. You do not have to go nuts putting a group buy thread together.

How many of you guys wanna stiffen up your driveline?

They're saying the "shake" of it all is what is assumed to be wheelhop, and getting this stuff eliminates it.

I personally am interested in solid motor mounts and their trans brace.


I have a Vert as well and was wondering what rollcage's you had to offer?I need somthing to get me in through tech inspection for road racing and thats it. I see the prices are all installed, but I will be able to that....in my stone driveway

Depending on shipping cost I may just drive up there

Thanks for pointing this out, Doug, we appreciate it. I get this question from time to time and yes it is important that people undersand that these components are solutions for two different concerns.

Any info you guys need just let us know. Thanks!
