I saw those on summit racings site but they didn’t have them in stock. I will get these. What does brace modification mean? Will my mechanic have a problem installing themYou'll be better off using subframe connectors that have a crossbar that bolts under the seat. I use Stifflers subframe connectors (and their FIT System) on my 2000 GT convertible autocross car. I've been very impressed with the quality of every Stifflers part I've purchased. The Stifflers subframe connectors are also much less expensive. See the link below. Make sure to read the note about 1983-1993 Convertible models needing "brace modification."
You don't have to buy them from Summit... LMR has free shipping at around $100... Good people there...I saw those on summit racings site but they didn’t have them in stock. I will get these. What does brace modification mean? Will my mechanic have a problem installing them
I haven't used the Stifflers subframe connectors on a Fox Body Convertible, so I don't have personal experience with the brace modifications. The modifications are detailed in the instructions.

I’m sure he’ll know what to do. He recommended putting them on and they do a lot of work with mustangs.

The modifications appear to be straightforward, but they will add time (and cost) to the installation.
Thanks. I ended buying the stifflers SFC. Cheaper than MMs. Can the web brace kit be added later on if I feel I need it?Fyi, there are also other brands out there.... Steeda, Team Z, BBK, SVE, for instance.
Thanks. I ended buying the stifflers SFC. Cheaper than MMs. Can the web brace kit be added later on if I feel I need it?As far as suspension or chassis, I'd go with either Stifflers or Maximum Motorsports (and personally have both for my car). My SFC's are the MM full length powdercoated units and they are excellent with great install instructions. I've ordered thousands of dollars in parts from www.lmr.com and they are awesome with fantastic customer service, I'd highly recommend them.

Stifflers Set
Optional but I would on a vert.

Yep, not a problem to add later.Thanks. I ended buying the stifflers SFC. Cheaper than MMs. Can the web brace kit be added later on if I feel I need it?
I think it's overkill anyway for the most part, but I can see how it might help on a vert. On a track car you're better off with a cage anyway.Wouldn't the web bracing be something more for a track car? No doubt it works but seems like overkill for a street car?
is it not recommended to use the subframes to jack the car? I know back in the day this shop used to lift mine on a 2 post lift at the subframes I believe, IIRCthe ease in which you can jack a car up after install is worth the install cost alone
