Mangled my front LCA brackets ARTEC was recommended by metalcloak. Great fix super strong cant wait to beat them up if I need to. Very nice design of slider portion in case I take a huge hit.
Part Im sure is wonderful. Im writing a review on the company policy on returns. Shipping costs were NOT refunded upon return. (Im sure this is written in fine print somewhere) With what I had to pay to send part back I should have just kept it. Total shipping coming returning cost more than the original cost of the part. Disappointing to say the least.
Real heavy duty . Mine didnt fit with the coil bucket like it shows in the picture it works great.
