Default Which subframe connectors? Ordering tonight.

Need your opinions again guys. Going to buy some weld up sub frame connectors for the GT. Installation is not an issue, I got that covered, but which set of connectors would you order for your GT? Thanks for your opinions as always.

BTW, I'm leaning toward the Maximum Motorsport connectors (price is not a concern, but I listed it anyway)

They do not do the same thing, the no name subs are just bars that have no r&d put into them, they have no engineers studying the affects of their sfc's on handling or worse yet they copy the design of one of the more reputable companies (mm or griggs) and send it oversee's to make and call it there own...

MM and Griggs suspension parts are expensive because of all the research and time they spend developing parts that do what they are specifically designed to do and are still top notch in durability.

You pay for what you get, and hopefully the iron bar you got from mustangs unlimited is shaped right to conform to your floor pan and your welder did not force it on.. or your chassis will be slowly bent by the bar..

You could have got the MM from www.stangsuspension.com for 114 bucks then you get a coupon code.

But on a better note you did get yourself some nice sub frames. Good choice!!

you have standard length sub frames. I would recommend getting full lengths to increase your chassis rigidity, but I do not know what other vert owners do, not sure if they have someone take the standards off and weld up the new ones or if there is a reliable way to extend them.
