Has anyone here done it, and if so, it it completely bolt in?
Inquiring minds must know.

Magnum Force stuff is junk. Lots of failures, lots of complaints about customer service. Save your money. If you're wanting a suspension upgrade, look at Gerst Suspensions. www.gerstsuspensions.com . I have one on my dart. The Gerst is completely bolt in. Highly recommended. Other than Gerst, I'd only consider RMS or HemiDenny, both of those however, require drilling of the front frame rails but are other wise, full bolt in.Has anyone here done it, and if so, it it completely bolt in?

This is a joke right?? Can't imagine you running anything aftermarket!Has anyone here done it, and if so, it it completely bolt in?

that's what I thought, maybe he hit his head or something.This is a joke right?? Can't imagine you running anything aftermarket!
I feel something else coming also from the master whateverer! Modern Hemi? From a real carb guy(?), c’mon.This is a joke right?? Can't imagine you running anything aftermarket!
I could explain it but a picture is worth a thousand words ...I've bought the Magnum Force front end and I'll be running a 5.7 Hemi with a TR6060 6 speed behind it . . . How you can even state that the work is "junk" is beyond me, the front end is a work of art . . . I've had it bolted into my car and it bolts right to the existing K-member bolt holes . . .
Now . . . the tunnel hump for the TR-6060 6 speed is another story all together - I've modified my tunnel hump by buying a tunnel hump from a 2014 Dodge Challenger ( that had a 5.7 Hemi and TR-6060 6 Speed ) and fabricated the tunnel hump into my car so I know that the transmission will fit. Had to modify the cross member and come up with new mountings to support the rear of the transmission . . . but I've got that all done and I've had the whole thing bolted into the car for fitment . . .
Now I just need to finish the rest of the work and get the car all back together and running . . .

This is on a 71 Cuda, supposedly on the maiden voyage.
This is just one of several pictures of the magnums force stuff failing across the web. I've yet to find any such pictures of an RMS or HDK or Gerst failing...

Go read the threads over on moparts and dodgecharger, both parties had to get attorneys involved cause they got no where with the customer service of Magnum force, same with the guy on FABO. It's your car, it's your money, it's your life. But niether of those 3 are worth betting on a product that has a massively bad reputation for qualityDid you contact Clint at magnum Force and inform them of the failure ? ? ? Did you even give them any opportunity to remedy the error ? ? ?
NOTHING is a given and failures "can" happen . . . rather than labeling ALL of there stuff as "junk" ( for a possible one off failure ) maybe getting in touch with the source to possibly get the error corrected could have resolved the broken web. My engine mounts for my 5.7 Hemi would not line up - and I had to do some fab work to make it right - BUT - BEFORE I did that I contacted Clint and he asked me to send it back to him so he could fix it, and then they'd ship a NEW front end out to me . . . I felt that was a waste of time and money, so I did the work myself ( with mt engineer friend ) and told them what the "estimated" machine shop costs were - and they wrote me a credit for all those costs ! !
Magnum Force was incredibly customer service focused and I was very happy with the support that I've got from them . . .

I'm running a Gerst. You won't find a stronger unit...Was your front end the Transformer ? Or did you get the tubular front end ? ?
I got the transformer . . . and it really appears to be built very STOUT !
LOL, you could do a (?) 4-person whatever in that elevator with ease! Speaking of which.I think the winter in Mass is affecting the ole Cranium.....Next thing he will buy is tiny house and put a tiny elevator in the dang thing....
