Stack clamps

Besides the STAXX clamps that 53 ****** uses what kind of stack clamps is everyone using? I want a good sturdy one that does look cheap and weak..

Dang.. sure didn't take long for someone to come up with some knock offs of the staxx clamp. There may be some copyright infringement there

There is actually several differences between the two. free enterprise is cool and so is competition. lol

I was looking at these. They look sturdy but only downfall is that they mount on top of the bed rail so they would be seen easy..

Buy a CNC machine to make your own staxx clamp and you will know why they are so pricey!"Staxx Clamp" brand clamps are BEEF!!! nothing comes even close they are worth the fundage...get one in hand and you will feel and see why a chunk of aluminum can be so spendy......just for a comparison...a stage II intake is $200-$500 dollars and there is nothing to them...but the first thing guys blow $200-$500 dollars on is an intake....I dont really see the difference between a spendy intake and a spendy staxx clamp????
