Default sub frame connectors

I did a search and didn't come up with anything so here we go.

Looking to see if anyone has, has seen, or knows specifics about sub frame connectors for the 05-06 stangs.

Fortunately, they are completely not needed on the s197 stangs. They were just used as a band-aid on fox platform mustangs. Our cars have a much more rigid frame.

If you push your car to its limit, and sometimes past it's limit (autoXing) then subframes help. I autoX, and without subframes it is noticable. Now, for a standard daily driver, subframes won't do much.

Here is a past thread with info on Subframe connectors:

https://mustangforums.com/m_1481499/tm.htm


I have them on my car. No, I am not pushing the limits of my chassis, but they make a very noticeable difference in stability and handling at speed.

I have the Steeda 3 points and I did notice a difference immediately. I see a decent amount of track time and they helped with the 60' times.

I do autocross, and i have seen a few track days, just not with the Roush yet.

My car is a vert, so I figured the subframes would help. I do tend to push the limits of the car, and would love to make the great Roush Stage 3 suspension just that much better.
