Default Floor Support Bars

Anybody know if the supra mkiv floor support bars will fit the SC? Its hard finding SC bars as i've been told they are no longer in production.

I'd venture a guess that the longer wheelbase of the SC might make this difficult without custom lengthening the MKIV support bars with a similar thickness of steel. Is this a unibody underside structural part that goes under the seating area?

Do-Luck used to make them for the Soarer and Supra as separate models. I'll take a wild guess and say they are different.

I know this doesn't help too much, but I remember a while back, maybe a few years ago I saw a 92-96 SC400 parked at a local Bass Pro parking lot that had floor support bars running along the sides of the vehicle. Placed along the rocker panels where the jacking points are the full length of the wheel base of the vehicle.

It was very surprising when I saw it because it looked like an otherwise stock vehicle. I remember wondering what those were and why he had them installed, etc.

Is this what you're referring to? What's the point of them? I know Supras have chassis twist issues on the Targa models but why would an SC need these?

Hmm, I remember there was either a Taiwan or Thailand company that made supports for front to back on the sc300. I do not remember there name but they had them for a whole different bunch of cars. Every part the company made was white. I tried googling but couldnt find them. Maybe someone can chime in with there name.


Edit: I found them. It is Ultra Racing

Thanks for the insight guys. I saw a site called intense power that sells them. But its hard to say if its actually in stock or not.

i'll have to check out ultra racing. If it looks like promising stuff and they have em on hand, i might snag a pair

I was informed by Nengun that Do-Luck will produce them if there is a waitlist of 5 orders. So it looks like I might be waiting a while lol.

Hmmm. I'm actually interested too. Mostly to use as a jacking rail.
