Hey i just got these subframe connectors for my 94 from UPR. Thay gave me ones for a 87-93 and said they were the same. These things are alot shorter then I thought. Should i try to return them and get some full lengths? On there website they look alot bigger then the ones I got. Does anyone have the lengths of there SFCs? Thanks

Maximum Motorsports has them listed for 79-92, 93, and 94-03. I would say with a coupe, standard lengths should be fine, unless your really into autocross.

Like Jake said, the standard lengths are "good enough" to keep the chassis from flexing as much as it did. For 55 bucks, you didn't go wrong. There might be one problem though. Because the Fox chassis is shorter than the SN95, the standard length connectors for a Fox may be too short for the SN95. If your having a shop put them in, just explain to them what the deal is, and if they need to add some length to them, then go ahead. It's not real hard.

I made mine and they're 48", so i would think you'll be fine.....welder can put a bigger gusset on the front......the back basically welds to a long flat spot towards the end of the frame, so your lenght should be more than do-able...
