gettin them installed can be pricy tho, so just remember that. ive been to 3 shops so far and the cheapest ive got quoted is 225, highest was 400. i know some guys said like 70-100 bucks, but theres alot of welding to be done to ge these things on, and i dont have any mustang performance shops local either

Also if anyone has any pics as to where they all need to be welded would be great, or i'll get ahold of MM to see what they say.

I don't have them myself, so I can't speak, but reading up on this topic I found this: people argue if they really stiffen the ride enough to notice on the street, and if so how much. but it's concluded that it's a required product if you go to any type of track. another benefit I heard mentioned is that it makes the car a little more quiet due to removing certain little creaks and such.

no..

and as far as subframes go, they are great. i just got mine put on yesterday and i can def. feel a real difference. the car acctually feels better over bumps, sturdier all around, throws me back a bit more, chirps gears easier, and corners SO MUCH BETTER. i know like all things ill get used to it, but it was worth all 300.
