Default Sunbframe Connectors

I'm looking to get some subframe connectors but was wondering what brand/type i should get.. I have heard that the MM brand SFC's are teh best from a couple people. Anyone know of a goos site where they have them at good prices? I have a convertable and heard that the possibly the full-length connectors is the way to go. Do the full length ones really make that much of a differance more over the standard length ones? i appreciate your input.. Thanks

I just had the standard length installed last week. Some of the more expensive kits I looked at had a center connector also. They were like 3 times more than what I paid for mine. If a connector is built similar it should perform similar. Just make shure you do your research on what you buy. I got mine off ebay and I watched like 50 sets sell before I decided to buy mine. Hope this is of some help.

I also heard somewhere that SFC's came stock on convertable stangs. Is this true or was this guy pulling my chain??

is it still a good idea to get additional subframe support even though they come w/ SFC"s stock or should they be ok w/ the stock ones? Iv'e seen a couple kits for 'verts but wonder if they are really necessary.

i had an 89 convertable and it felt alot more solid than my hatch does so i wouldn't even worry about it,,i am sure those kits have their merrits but they may be a little bit on the wasting your money side

I'd really like to stiffen up mine, I've got short ones in there but would like to go more extensive. You really notice body flex more in a vert and any stiffening will help.
