Default Hotchkis subframe connectors

I've called some local shops (Chicago) and no one wants to take on the task of welding subframe connectors, so I looked around the Internet and came across these: http://www.hotchkis.net/20052011-for...onnectors.html what do u think? Or does anyone have them on their car currently and if so how do you like them? Any input would we greatly appreciated. I also came across these: http://dhrfabrication.com/press_release.htm
Has anyone seen these? There isn't too much info about them online.

Why do you think you need those? The S197 is already pretty stiff, and not at all like the SN95 or Fox chassis. They needed the subframe connectors to keep from flexing, but it really hasn't been an issue for the S197.

Unless you are doing some serious road course racing - and even then they probably aren't needed - not much reason to have them on a daily driver and occasional track car.

Check out Dean's performance in St. Charles, IL. 630.584.9530
They install sub-frame connectors for a reasonable price.
They are busy & hard to get on the phone. But you can email them from their website.

Got them on my car. Really works great as a package with the TVS kit.
