Rear shock brace kit

[Hogback Fabrication]

Not a super glamorous new part, but definitely one that addresses a weak point!

Great idea, my frame was cracked in that same location.

Does the install of this shock brace require drilling holes in the frame?

Yes, you have to drill four holes

Installed mine last weekend. Passenger side easy. Driver's side---> had to drop the gas tank to fit a wrench in. 1 hour project easy.

I actually installed mine on the drivers side without dropping the tank...if you can believe it. I felt like freaking MacGyver with extensions and wabbles to get the nut started and tightened on the backside of the frame....but I did it, haha.

I like this product. Simple, but worthwhile upgrade if keeping shocks in the stock location
