Has anyone used these repair parts? If so are they worth the money or should a guy fab his own?

No, I haven't used them, but it seems to me that someone spent time engineering these things to fit right the first time. And that company has been around a while, so they must be doing something right. For me, if I need to, I am going to save myself time and, for me, some anger and buy it from them.

At the Nationals they had a display set up on a Challenger. The stuff looked first class all the way.

It's not just for rust repair. The caps can significantly stiffen the Mopar unibody without adding a lot of weight. They also make sub-frame connectors

I have used their rearshackle mounts, rear frame rails and torsion bar mounts and I was happy about the quality of them, BUT the torsion bar mounts and rear frames were "slipons" meaning you dont cut any of the old rusty frame away. (or do you?)
No I did not pay for shipment to Sweden, they were included with a car I shipped.

I used the shackle mounts and manufactured the the other parts myself. But other than that they fit very good.

I used them on my Roadrunner -69.

those subframe connectors are just .120" thick rectangular tubing. if you have the tools/skill/resources to install them you most likely can make 'em.
