Subframes that is.. i bought the steeda full length and welded them on this morning. i feel a big difference as far as the rear end, It's alot tighter in curves and a hell of a lot easier to throw the rear end around now. i want to do some more reinforcements in the torque box area as mine was out of true a little bit, i have some 1/4'' steel shims i'm going to tig weld between the box and the frame,

subframes are great. chassis stiffening should have been one of my initial modifications.

Yeah SFC's are nice, but that last thing sounds like overkill lol...remember stock parts are just pinch welded, so ANY extra welds will increase rigidity and strength by ALOT.

I had to shim my SFC's, and bend one of them, damn stock sub frame rails bend so easily when using a floor jack as much as I did before I got them..... Welded solid and work great though, biggest gain is being able to jack the car a whole side at a time IMO :-D

Sorry to the OP, but BennyBlown2v why are you selling your car? That is probably one of the most well built cars on Stangnet!
