Photos Sub Frame Connectors
I bought mine off of e-Bay YEARS ago for about $90..... They are from Competition Engineering. What I like about them is they drop down a bit so you don't have to monkey around with the emergency brake cable or slicing the floor pan.
Here I'm test-fitting the connectors after trimming them. I had a friend weld them in the following weekend as a favor. I made sure they fit for him.
Here's Ricky from American Muffler in Baldwin, N.Y. doing what he does best.
Althought they do arch downward, they don't hang too low. Once they are POR-15'ed and undercoated you'll never see them.
The fuel line clears beautifully....
And the emergency brake cable doesn't have to be re-located as with some other brands.
** That bit of ugliness in front of the L/R leaf spring was created when I torched out an old ladder bar mount and put a small split in the frame. I'm a dick at times... Ricky fixed it. **
Now, is it worth it? I actually FELT the difference in my car. My car was assembled with new suspension, steering, brakes, and tires and now it feels like those new parts are finally bolted together!
BTW: I documented everything I did on this project. Just under 1,000 pictures on my Fotki account. I hope someone can use the info. :-D
