Son of a biscuit! These subframe connectors are kicking my ass July 26, 2006, 10:32:49 PM So 2 days ago I started on my subframe connector install, got the seat braces welded to the connectors and the reinforcing tabs welded on, and my welder ran out of wire. So I picked up a new 1 lb spool before I left work yesterday. Today I started putting the connectors in, got all the welds done except the inside two on the back (on the subframe side facing the lers) and the welder ran out of wire AGAIN:toilet: So, I guess my question is, will this thing be OK without those last two welds for a couple days? I won't be able to get at it again until Sunday most likely. I hope it'll be OK as I don't have any choice except to drive the car as is Quote Selected

These subframe connectors are kicking my ass Reply #2 – July 26, 2006, 11:52:25 PM Second that Should be fine remember the car got by w/out them for ever you know better then me there your welds as long as there strong enough to stay there and you don’t do any road course racing so that the car flexes to the stress point to break them. Even still you should be fine with good welds on have them. Quote Selected

You kinda need them if you don't want to hack/beat the out of your floor pans. Quote Selected
Son of a biscuit! These subframe connectors are kicking my ass Reply #8 – August 15, 2006, 09:28:19 PM Huh?Mine were just straight stock and they welded in just fine...didn't hit anything. The ones in the pics with the "angles" are the ones for the Mustangs. Quote Selected
