Message I see

"The Do-luck rear ladder bar braces the rear frame rails, reducing lateral flex and increase chassis rigidity for improved handling. The bar is bolt-on using bolt holes for the tow hooks, and can be used to strap down the car after removing tow hooks ".

Somehow I only see that last sentence being the factor here. No way are you going to be able to tell lateral flex from that little bar, strap down point? Yes, Hell I thought it was like one of those things like on Honda's with the little loop type hole hooking device. To create the rigidity affect, one would think the install would have to have some kinda force in fitment on the frame to insure stiffness for the whole structure, or I guess in this case, it's preventing the movement by bolting together the rails, to what affect, who knows.

I guess it's like the front strut bar, looks like it makes sense, but frame stiffness measured by 3 little nuts from each side top of the Struts? At least the price has come down on those so much over the years, thoughts of it's effectiveness are pretty much over looked. The back one, I guess the same but then again, I guess something is better than nothing in the end.
