Sub-Frames on Non-Vert worth it?

[menasci]

Are Sub-Frames worth doing on a coupe.
The review look like they are done on Verts.
I was planning on getting Maximum Motorsports Full Length Sub Frame Connectors.

Anyone put these on their coupe?

yes

It was the first thing that I did on mine. Had a Fox body previously so I wanted to nip this issue in the bud early on. Fox4 chassis is strong but still needs some help in the stiffness department. When I had mine installed on the Cobra, could feel an increase in stiffness, especially when I drove the car over an uneven surface for the first time with them on. So I would say go for it.

Yep! Big difference.

Do them and do them now. The longer you drive around without them, the less helpful they are.

 

[Yellow01GT]

Get 'em...you won't regret it.

Night and day difference, unless all the nerves in your SOTP meter are dead. Get them.

Try this.

Take out your spare & jack. Take out the trunk carpet/floor. Take out the entire backseat. Turn your radio off and drive around. make sure to make some turns and go over some uneven road. You'll be able to HEAR the car creaking and twisting. It's amazing. I don't have them, but I want to get them.

Where is the best place to buy them, and how much should I pay?

I would get them. Where's the best place (and price) for some? Also, how much should it cost to get them welded in ?

 

[ChrisXoxide]

Probably an hour of shop labor.

 

[blaze76]

Get them!
I paid $75.00 for steeda w/cross brace. and $75.00 to have them painted and welded in. They work great.

do it do it do it!

Man I need them too. I think Ford shoulda just put the damn things in at the factory along with 3.55 gears in the first place! Somebody else said it best in another thread about not having sub-frames when they talked about hitting a few minor bumps in the road and "rockin' and rollin" all over the place.

i'm thinking i'll do my subframe connectors when i do my cat-back. since the car will be on the lift i might as well get it done at that time.

I asked the local mustang shop how long it would take to put them in and they told me 4-5 hours. (kenny brown matrix kit) and they charge $60 an hour.

Well gee, I don't want to be a loser.
So I guess I'll get them, thank you
