I`ve looked at a couple of subframe connectors recently and there is 2 ways of doing it. One of them is bolted on and the other one is saudered to it. Which one is best?

The second type is welded, not sottered, or w/e.....do what stanglx said, its a good idea.

Weld!!!!

I had them installed in my '86 Capri 5.0, made the world of difference. Along with strut tower brace and the lower (k-frame??) brace.

Makes the older girls handle much better.
