Subframe Connectors


What is the best bang for the buck subframe connector available? I came across these and thought they looked interesting:



Any opinions? This will be for a 93 LX 5.0 notch.

in-floor connectors

weld-ons suck, groud clearance sucks, and they dont do much to support the chassis

yeah wouldnt we all like to have are cars like that.. But weld in sub-frame connectors do quite a bit in making the car stiffer..

Does anyone sell the in-floor connectors? Or do you have to make your own?

I guess no one has installed the Spintech subframe connectors. I have some round tube connectors that were welded on but the ground clearance sucks and my car isn't even lowered yet.

ifffff you mechanically inclined you can make your own and add more bracing to them but if your not, buy them but get boxed tubing its more rigid, i put the ones i got on and added bracing where i could frame is solid as can be now. well worth the time.
