Sub Frame Connectors

TwiLighTBluEGT · 06-20-2002, 10:56 AM

If I am going to run 373's in a GT Conv, should I get subframe connectors? Or will the car feel safe to hammer on without them? If I should get them, what kind should I buy? I know the welded ones are best, but what brand?

sub frames wil help your car hook better and corner much nicer (less body flex)..

I have heard good things about Steda, they are supposed to fit very nicely..

getting mine installed in a week..

What he said. They're a must on convertables. I noticed a nice difference with mine.

Subframes made my car handle much better and cured most of my rattles,

but

My car pulls the exact same 60ft's with the sub frames and removed front sway bar as it did in stock trim

Very dissapointing.

SC's are a must on ANY stang. They're many different manufacturers that make quality subs.......just make sure you get the weld-on sc and not the bolt on. You might not see a big difference o your time sli, but you'll feel the difference big time.

I just had the Maximum Motorsports Full length subframes with seat braces welded on my car a few days ago and they are very nice. go to www.maximummotorsports.com for details.

I highly recommend weld in sub frame connectors. If you get the bolt on, like Steeda, weld them on instead of just bolting them up.

The MM connectors are very good as are the "super sub frame matrix" that is made by Kenny bell.
