New part sneak peek

I never do this but I figured I would let you have a sneak peek at a part that I am launching in a week or so. It is based off the 99 alternator bracket with integrated lift hook. I will be offering one for the stock configuration and one for folks that have removed A/C and P/S. They will be black powder coated.

There probably isn't that much difference, but have you had a chance to weigh this compared to the stock alternator and separate engine hook brackets?

So glad you guys are making this!

Yeah I cant imagine the saving to be much but it does tidy up that area a little. Less clutter is always a good thing! .

If I didn't have a 2002 car with one already I'd have been interested in this.

My bracket is currently dangling in a bucket of passivate solution .
