Then you should ask questions and not just pass judgment. Brackets of this type stop wheel hop which when you get to a power level like my 135 (~450 hp at the crank) are a big issue like as in my 135. Good way to rip a half shaft in two. There are a few that make a bracket like this and the cheapest is $199 each and in my opinion will not be as robust as mine for the cost involved.

I do this stuff as a hobby and challenge so I can sell it at a low cost to members. I'm not in any way going to make a big profit to retire on, that's for sure lol.. When I had my 2008 600hp blown mustang, I fabbed custom engine mounts to deal with the abuse as the aluminum OEM's were starting to crack. So, I made them out of steel plates..
