Question

Subframe Connectors


I was looking at Maximum Motorsports and UPR's subframe connectors and both offer a full length and a standard SFC. Which or both are more practical for daily driving? Would it be wise to do both or just one?

To help prevent rust and whatnot.

well you have to grind off the power coat to weld them on. I would get the regular full length and paint them. Use tape to cove the parts that will be welded on, then paint that area after you weld. If its <$20 for the powder coat i would go with that.

Yeah, but you'll have to grind at least a quarter of the powdercoating off to weld...
Thanks Lefty!
