They seem very tempting...
it cost me 80 bucks for the weld took about an hour and the guy who did the job was excellent he only works on Mustangs so I am satisfied

Default install question

Has anyone on here installed full length subframe connectors? I have access to a welder and a drive on lift. How much work is involved? Do I need to pull the interior of the car ? Thanks

Pulling the carpet out. Not you don't have to pull the interior. They only weld to the frame. If you were doing through the floor frame connectors then you would have to pull the interior. Cost me $125 for installation. Don't know if they were done on drive on or post lift, but the shop said that there is a correct way to do it on a post lift. My only concern is that now when I launch there is a crackling noise.

I can't stress enough to people how important suspension and chasis work is, to get your car to run quick. I think that sub frames are one of the best mods....by far!!

I've got griggs std. length connectors under the car which is where my torque arm mounts to in front. I've also got a set of griggs in-floor subs in the garage waiting for the 5.4 install (going to be replacing lots of stuff then so might as well wait). One of the best mods ever. Really helps isolate the suspension from body twist. Important when you're cornering.
