Hotchkis vs USCartools subframe connectors

I made my own as well, it really wasn't too bad just annoying having to be on my back so much to take measurements and keep re-checking the fit...
One thing's for sure, whatever the initial rust-prevention primer/coating they put on the unibody from the factory is strong as HELL, I couldn't get it all off with a wire wheel and I ended up having a hard time with the welding it really didn't want to arc to the body easily (and that's where my ground was attached).
i made mine too, but even though they're not stitch welded to the floors, i couldn't bring myself to leave the carpet and everything in. for getting the undercoating off, the nylon cup brushes and wheels work great. on a die grinder they tear through it like nothing. lots of dust though. i wore a real filter mask (not the ones with the rubber bands to hold em') and a face shield. no problems getting clean metal every where.
