ReverendDexter · February 22nd, 2010, 05:23 PM

I'd spend the extra $40 and get ones with the seat bracing.

Yep. You can save some money going with the bare steel ones rather than the powdercoated, but if you go that route get them installed and painted quick or they'll surface rust something fierce.

sickfox · February 22nd, 2010, 05:34 PM

Well I guess AM dont have MM brand for the fox

flyin ryan · February 22nd, 2010, 05:36 PM

MM or Steeda's... Steeda actually fit better or needed less effort or install I should say

Like these ones?

Steeda Full Length Subframe Connector (79-04) at AmericanMuscle.com - Free Shipping! I dont see it saying anything about the seat brace tho.

MustangMatt96GT · February 22nd, 2010, 06:05 PM

i have Steeda SFC on my car....

91sleeper · February 22nd, 2010, 08:13 PM

I have the summit brand. They worked well for me.

ReverendDexter · February 22nd, 2010, 08:56 PM

<rant on>

The reason I suggest MM/Griggs/Steeda over any other SFCs is that these companies actually RACE cars with the parts they make. They're not selling parts just to make money, they're selling the parts they use on their cars to make money to keep racing. In this particular case, if the SFCs aren't rigid enough, they'll find ways to increase that rigidity. If they're too heavy, they'll find ways to try and shed weight out of them. Either way, their goal is performance first.

An SFC is a pretty easy thing to develop if all you care about is that it mostly fits. Just by welding, or even bolting on, a peice of metal the connects the subframes you're going to see SOME increase in stiffness.

I just don't understand why anyone would go through the time and expense of ordering and permanently installing a part on their car that their only reason for choosing was price (especially when leaving it alone is free).

Maybe I'm weird in that I leave things stock rather than installing something aftermarket, just for the sake of having it

They are but install is a big pain in the ass im sure plus it's not cheap if you can't do it yourself.

sickfox · February 23rd, 2010, 11:52 AM
