That hollow tube looks like a Currie frame strengthener.

Haven't seen em for XJs, but it's the same style used on Camaros. Tube is a lot lighter than plating.

Seen and used them for Camaros, but for them they are a bit of a difference in necessity. For a Camaro, it would be sub frame connectors.

Always thought it was a cool idea, but looks more for the Jeepspeed crowd and they look like you would have to get creative to run those with sliders. I bet Oliver could fab those up in less than a couple of hours.

Scott, they call them subframe connectors on the Currie site that was linked. But yes, I have SFCs on mine.

I just wasn't sure if you'd noticed the term SFC on there.

I noticed, but they are named wrong for XJs. As you know, XJ unibody, and a Camaro subframe are a bit different.
