Make sure she is sitting on the wheels when you weld them up. You want to weld them in like the car sits naturally on the suspension.

The back I can put it right on the rear end...but what about the front?
Do you think the a-frame would give me that natural stance?

You should use a jack to lift the connector up into place while the car is still on the ground, then weld them in place from the outside. Do both sides that way, then put it up on the stands and finish weld the insides
Make sure you go over all your ares you are going to weld with a wire wheel or something to clean them up well.

How about the welds....Should it be long welds, or a bunch of short ones?
6in welds? 2in welds?? What do you think?
(Keep in mind, I never welded in my life

WHOA!! What a difference!
Installed them yesterday...and the car feelsso muchmore solid. Turning is more responsive, the car does not rattle as much...for aFox anyway
When I tap the gas...the torques feels much higher. It makes sense too! No HP getting lost in the flex...
If you do not have Subframe Connectors installed...GET THEM! For $129.99, they are a great investment!
