Default Subframe connectors....

Are all subframe connectors the same? Any specific type I should get? I know I need to get the weld on's but is there anything I need to watch out for? Thanks

I will say this, the Steeda Full Length(weld on) SFC's are very well made.
Tubular Box construction, not going to rust at all.
And they match the frame of the car, while most are perfectly straight.
Highly suggest them.

I would suggest you get the full length connectors no matter what brand you decide as it will be stronger.
Also get the seat support cross bars.

I've heard great things about full length and non-full length. IMHO I would suggest getting the non-full length if you're on a tighter budget (the full lengths are around 190$ where as the others are 50$). I can't imagine that there is that big of a difference between the two.

Full lengths than you have to cut out parts of the floor pan and then weld in the connectors are the strongest, but most work.
If the car isn't going to see alot of track use the ones with the seat braces are the next best IMO.
