Message	The 2x4 risers twisted away from the top plate. This twisting happened while raising the car one side at a time, too add blocks incrementally. This set was also assembled with nails, not screws, so that could also have been a factor. Regardless, the interlocking between blocks, and additional bracing, provided by the lower cross-bracing is in my opinion beneficial. My Mod List & More At Motortopia or The Car Space
