**TopForm11** · 01-18-2008, 06:09 PM

I have been looking at sub-frame connectors for my 02 TA WS6...does any one have any reccomendations on what brand to get. Also what are the pros and cons to installing them and where can I get them at a good price???

X2 for UMI. but, You will get the most answers by doing a search.

Several of our sponsors carry SFCs, lots of selection among brands as well. No real downside to installing them, one of the best mods you can do for your fbody.

About the only downside is the addition of weight to the car and removal of weight from your wallet. Having said that, I am very pleased with how they have firmed up the feel of my car.

Do they seem to give you better traction???

By themselves? No. In combination with my LCA relocation brackets? Possibly.

I purposely bought them to increase the lever arm that the front mount of my LCAs had on launch. I know the car launches much harder now with that combination.

I got mine from ws6store, I think they were $149.99 at the time.. they were UMI

X4 for UMI. I have their 3 point bolt-ins on my car and they've firmed up the body integrity enormously. The car doesn't creak, rattle, shake or twist any more even on bad Jersey roads.

i went with the 2 point, was good enough for me

Go to TPIS.COM they have a good price.
All they do is F-Body & Vette

What would be better weld-in or bolt on SFC? Does it matter on type of driving you'll be doing?

**Danger731** · 03-28-2008, 01:11 AM

If you get 3 point and bolt em in correctly it wouldn't make a difference. 2 point I'de weld in.

**FreeBird89** · 03-28-2008, 07:31 AM

Why is that? If you dont mind me asking?

**99Ls1fever** · 03-28-2008, 08:56 AM

SLP box subframe connectors are pretty bad ass (weld in)

get weld in no matter what though, strength of chassis is way better....

**99Ls1fever** · 03-28-2008, 09:01 AM

**99Ls1fever** · 03-28-2008, 09:02 AM

The car is coming along great though, just got the 408 together and put all my other mods all in at the same time and went crusing so I can't complain
