Ha yes, secure is an understatement, they are likely stronger than the factory GT setup. They go completely through the frame and are secured on each end by nuts with washers and lock-washers.

I'll let you know when I find out for sure, I'm trying to charge more accurately for swaps. I used to charge a flat right but it was just waaaay too low and didn't begin to represent the actual hours put into the project.
