Yup... I've borrowed a brace in the past, but didn't love it, and the way it set I was afraid it would damage the adjustment tabs on my konis...
Plan is to use a bad ass ratchet strap to pull tension, and then once we feel good about it, use a chain for backup in case the strap decides to give up. Thats all good heavy pipe, and the angles are such that gravity should help hold them in place nicely.
