Hopefully these are bigger.

Anyway... as I mentioned in another thread, my installation seems to be different than some others. Anyone else have photos of frame conncetors - I've very curious see see how they were installed.

Hard to tell but those look like mine. Just a simple square tube with "U" shaped sockets at the end...

Mine are similar. Rather than welded bracket to the end of the front framerail, mine actually slid about 8" inside the front framerail and are spot welded.

Yes, I was also told that frame connectors are one of the the most cost effective wayof strengthening and tightening the car. Also, I think they look like they belong on the car. I can't wait until my engine and interior restoration is done I can drive it!

I have always wondered why Ford didn't just put them on as a full frame at the factory.

It's interesting that not many classic Mustang owners put these on their rides. Considering the reasonable cost and big improvement in handling it would seem like a no-brainer.
