Maximum motorsport full length connectors. I believe they make a through the floor connector also, but thats more for all out racing. Full length connectors is all you need for a street car.

Not sure if this is the name, but I think kenne belle makes "supersubs". They connect your subframes and also reinforce the pinch weld area.

hey while your at it, go ahead and get some torque box re-enforcements man. I think they're like $24.99 from Jegs, its just two metal plates, you can fabricate your own out of some 1/8 inch steel plate. I made my own with my dads plasma cutter, lol. But a grinder works fine to.

Supersubs are Kenny Brown.

I have them and they're fine. Under $150 on e-bay new too. I think I paid $89 or $99.

i obviously don't have a 86 but i just installed the MM full lengths and they work superb. i wasn't expecting much from the subframes but man did it help alot. i paid $130 for them and was the best suspension mod i did.
