You're probably right. I'm not sure how big they are though. I know there's a gap, but I'm not sure if it's enough to get it through. I wonder if it would weaken it a bit cutting the SFCs off an put them back on? Seems like it could.. I might just cut the seat braces in half, weld them on and make a triangle support thing for them and weld it in. Or better yet, ask the shop to do it since I don't have any gas for my welder and they're the ones that didn't put them on.

 

Cutting the subs off and rewelding them won't weaken the metal, but it is a huge pain in the *** and I wouldn't do it. The weld is stronger than the base metal.

 

I suck at welding...

 

The seat brackets come with the package now why they didn't weld them in Who Knows?Like every one said they support the seats for tearing out.In order to fix this at this point they must cut the welds and reinstall them with the brackets to work properly I Would be PISSED !! Me and a friend did mine i'm sure you saw my post....Good luck with the fools who did yours it's a darn shame...........
added........There's also two little rectangle plate 1 1/2 x 2 1/2 that's with the hardware also needed to be welded in on the street side of the subframe connector in the crimp of it towards the front of subframes where it flexes, I bet those ******** didn't weld those in either?

 

Well, I know they got those plates. Not sure if they were welded on I need to check. By street side you're referring to the side opposite of the car body right?

 

Yes, there is a little indention in the subframe connectors towards the front where those rectangle pieces get welded inside the indention for strength .....
