sub frames, do they really work?

[custom89stang]

i was thinking about some FULL LENGTH sub frames, just wondering if they are worth the 150$, i want some help w/ my suspension...wondering what results anyone got with putting them on, like, what they noticed in handling, etc.

Definitely worth the $150. Makes the car seem like it is on rails in the turns. Once you drive it, you think you have a new car.

yup worth my money get em

If you dont feel like dishing out the cash you could always fab up your own if you wanted too. I bought the chassis bracing package from Maximummotorsports.com which came with the strut brace, 4 point k-member brace and full length connectos. I havent put my connectors on yet but a buddy of mine has a set and the car is incredible!

I've only got the frame end-to-end style subs, not full length, and they're so dramatic vs. a car that doesnt have'em it's not even funny....should have been a factory option.

Please hit the search button next time about something of this nature. It has been debated many times

they are worth it. especially if you like to turn and use torque

Even going straight on uneven roads, you'll notice the difference. I'm used to my SFCs already, time for some In-floors

 

[Blakthorn]

what exactly do they do

 

[morepower]

HELL YES .....

your car will feel solid.....

i used to think that speed is everything but once i spent money on suspension i will now say speed and handling is everything

my 2 cents

love em

1st aftermarket mod done to my car, noticed a BIG difference. Should have come from the factory with them.

Well, I didn't notice too much of a difference. It was a piece-of-mind thing for me, I didn't want to twist my car. I was hoping for a noticeable difference but it just wasn't there. My car did start rut hunting like a bastard with bias ply's on the back. With the car tied together the back tires seemed to throw the front end around. Put radials on and it was all normal.

 

[SmockDoiley]

twist your car? Please your running 13's,lol!!!

I've been debating whether to get these along with a s/t brace. By the positive response I've seen. This appears to be a definite worthy mod. But then again what mod isn't, well in our eyes.

what are in floors, are those the kind where you have to make a tunnel in the back seat floorboard to put them in because mine had these when i got it and you can see the square tubing or whatever through the holes in the stock frame, do you get what i mean.

 

[Gearbanger 101]

No they're not worth it (the price that is). No offence, but you'd have to have rocks in your head to spend $150.00 on a set of sub-frame connectors that you could have made for $20.00. You can buy them waaaaay cheaper than that.

Trust me, us topless types need all the help we can get! Subs made a huge difference in my car, corners like a cat on carpet!

Sub frame connectors are the first thing that should be done to any fox body.
