subframe connectors

t70 · February 7th, 2009, 08:51 PM

I think the first thing I'm gonna do is subframe connectors( being a vert it just seems to make sense)
is there much difference between brands? anyone had problems? I'll def do weld ins but not sure wich ones

00redgt · February 7th, 2009, 09:01 PM

some brands are made thicker,so yes they are difference,i know the ford racing ones are not for a vert,so i dunno about the other companys,maximum motorsports are really good

HMUSN · February 7th, 2009, 09:02 PM

I vote the maximum motorsport full lengths.

00redgt · February 7th, 2009, 09:02 PM

if u do get them get it with the seat support

t70 · February 7th, 2009, 09:12 PM

Good Ideas thanx

I kinda like these:

Part # MMFL-3B (cannot create a direct link) ***HERE*** is a link to the installation instructions. I wouldn't bother with the PC ones as you will need to remove it to weld in places anyway. When done, just give them a good coat of paint and should be fine.

00redgt.... what do you mean by "seat support"?

you already have some stock, but upgrading is wise if you are going to be rough on the car.

Sorry for the n00b question, but what exactly to subframe connectors do? Are they simply metal bars that are welded to the "frame" to make it stiffer and not flex?

Lefty · February 7th, 2009, 09:51 PM

^ Yes

B0B · February 8th, 2009, 01:13 PM

yup, you can't go wrong with any maximum motorsports parts. they have good shit.

casper gt · February 8th, 2009, 02:00 PM

steeda only way to go imo. mm's are nice but don't come with lower torque box re-enforcement's like the steeda's & imo dont fit as well as steeda's (the ones I've installed anyways) oh & seat supports are the bracket's that go across the sfc's under the seat mounts & bolt to them.

Lefty · February 8th, 2009, 02:05 PM

The Hans is the way to go if your willing to drop a ton of cash.

Definitely go with full length connectors and I recommend the steeda's or maximum motorsports. Good quality and they actually fit properly unlike many of the other pieces out there!

everybodys got their own opinion but from installing numerous sets from both companies steeda's fit better. the only other sfc's I'd even consider(from an installer's stand point) is the ones from laurel mountain mustang as they are direct knock off's of steeda's & also fit very well.

SWEET2KSTANG · February 8th, 2009, 09:19 PM

i have the bbk's, fitment was good, has seat supports, and i ended up wleding mine in too. i welded up the torque boxes while i was ther, not too big of a deal.
