Pros:	Fit very well
Cons:	Must be installed using proper alignment specs

Both left and right hand side frame rails fit incredibly well. They basically slid right into place, with the only issue being a slight gap that needed to be taken up between the trunk floor and the frame rails. They are thicker than stock (convertible spec, if I remember correctly) and have all the proper holes drilled.

The only downside to these is not actually product related, but related to the task of frame rail replacement. It is imperative that they are installed according to the Fisher body specifications to ensure proper body and suspension geometry.

Pros:	Very nice quality
Cons:	They were slight;ly too long for my 68

I would give a 10 BUT the rail at the back by the rear leaf spring bushing mount was about 3/4 of an inch too long. Comparing them to my old rail you could see the length difference. I examined two more rails and they were the same. The forums also reported a few people with the same issue on the 68's. I did not have&nbsp;a problem cutting out a small section and rewelding the rear flange section back on. With that being said they were VERY high quality of construction and I was VERY satisfied with the installed rail. Like the previous review I had to drill holes for the plug welds in the trunk area and use self tapping screws to pull the rail and trunk section tight before welding with some of the holes.
If I had to replace any rails I would buy these again no problem

Pros:	thicker than stock
Cons:	1/4" space between torque boxes and welding flanges at the front ends of the frame rails

Paid $174 each. plus shipping.&nbsp; Great quality and thicker than stock.&nbsp; Nice and clean welds and EDP coating.&nbsp; 
&nbsp;
Ended up with a space issue between the torque boxes on the one-pc floor and the front-most welding flanges at the ends of the frame rails.&nbsp;
