Default BBK subframe connectors.....how good are they?

i just bought another mustang (90 notch) it has BBK subframe connectors on it.....how good are they?

i was thinking about having them cut off so i can get the team z's or wolfe craft racing subframe connectors but i was told they were completely welded the car and is i quote "apart of it now"

so how good are the bbks?

who told you that they weren't un-doable. anything can be cut off and grinded down. I have the maximum motorsports subframe connectors and i love em. Haven't heard too much about the BBK ones.

they will be fine. bbk makes a good product and there is little room for improving the design of a subframe, its a pretty simple design

so it wouldn't be worth the effort to cut them off?

i just don't want the car twisting all to hell

Leave them be. Theyre made of the same stuff as everybody else, steel. As long as the welds are good and dont look like bubblegum, youre good to go.

Im using Kenny Brown Double Crosses. They have an extra brace welded to them that bolts to the seat mounts.

But if you REALLY want to replace them then Maximum Motorsports is a good pick.
