When I installed the airbags I started keeping a close eye on body lines and panel gaps and I have started noticing that the drivers rear quarter is sagging very slightly from rolling 3-wheel, the lower arm mounting points in the front are starting to crack at the welds from hopping. All this is not as bad as it sounds and can be fix easily but to keep it from happing again I want to reinforce the frame and wrap it like I would do so for hydros. I was running my air setup at high pressure, I had to drop the PSI to keep from damaging the car permanently and after I reinforce that bitch the pressure will sky rocket and I will have one of the sickest air setup that will rival most hydro setup in my town.

So what do I need to do to reinforce the frame and wrap it?
How thick of steel, what points on the frame, and little tricks that you hydro guy do to keep from destroying your rides
