For a car that sees floor jacks as often as these do, I would think it makes sense. Is there any reason not to? It sure would be nice to stick a jack under the frame below the door and jack the side up front and rear without hurting anything. I would think any good race shop would be able to make something very simple and stitch weld the whole thing in less than an hour. Or even better, come up with a bolt on solution...
So my question is, have any of you added, or seen added, jacking rails to a Twin?

Just use the proper tools and you will be fine. No need to add anything like a Ford.
