They cost $159 for the subframes and $39 for the weld-in seat supports (welded to the subframe)

wow, i have never seen round subframes before.....i don't see how they can be as good as square ones........naturally by design the square box SFC will be more rigid. More room for flex in the round ones. Either way, have to be better then nothing I suppose.

I'm just quoting from Global West:

Through "hands on " experience dealing with Mustangs for over 20 years, we have reached several
conclusions:

A person can't get too serious about handling or straight line performance without subframe
connectors.

Subframe connectors should tie into bulk head areas. This means full length subframes (not 3/4
length subframes).

Subframes must be welded to the chassis. Bolting a subframe does little for torsional rigidity.

We have found that round tube subframes resist twist better than square tube designs, per given
weight.

Subframes should be strong enough to allow you to place a jack anywhere along it's structure and
raise the vehicle.

Subframes should be constructed with .125 wall roll cage material in order to handle chassis loads.

wow you have a lot of ground clearance.

I couldn't feel any difference when I had my fl mm sfc installed. I even made a thread about it, but even if I can't feel a difference, I know it's added structural integrity is well worth the cost.

steve, I had mine welded for $100 by a fellow mustang enthusiast. he did it in his garage and took about 4 hours.

I feel a lot of difference when I turn hard. Now I can go on this one freeway on-ramp at 60mph without braking. At normal straight-line driving, it feels well... normal.
