subframe connectors where do i weld them?

[SNAKE 94]

I bought a pair of bbk bolt on subframe connectors w/ seat support brackets,went to bolt them on today and decided it would be easier and better to just weld them on. now my ?is do i just need to weld arround the end or should i weld all the waydown both parts of the subframe?

At both ends....

But some welding in the middle woudln't hurt. Don't do it all the way along the body of the car, you will never get them off if you wanted to if you did.

Like mo dingo said, at the ends. Personally, I'm going to weld mine at every possible point, with one long, continuous bead. I don't ever plan on taking them off once they're on, and if I really wanted to, I'll just go through several grinding wheels to do it. The more welds, the more they'll stiffen the unibody in theory, although I haven't seen anything that says anything either way. Just weld them, instead of bolting them in, for a much stiffer chassis.

you get more strength by skip welding, weld 2" then skip then weld 2" etc.. if you continiuos weld it will actually weaken it
