I was looking at the bolt in SLP ones. The ones that also connect in the center. Everywhere I go people recomend getting sub frame connectors as one of the first mods :wooo

I just finished installing my 3 pt ones and the difference is huge, you can actually feel the suspension working like it's suppose to.

What the average weight for subframe connectors?

If you get them, get weld in sc.

Deff a worthwhile investment. Car handles quite squirly IMHO w/o them.

If your not concerned with weight, do the SLP bolt ons, other wise some nice tubulr or boxed weld in's save hella weight and dont loose the jack points.

Avg weight... triangulated bolt in/weld in: 35 lbs a piece

tubular or boxed that run length wise with the chassis, 6-7 lbs a piece.

Do the box ones connect in thecenter like the slp ones? I mean those slp ones look strong!!! I remeber when we put them on mikes SS the car only sat on 3 of the 4 jackstands (one of the floor tiles was lower :wooo)

I've got the BMR boxed weld in's. Great mod and indeed should be one of the first. To fully apreciate it, drive it stock aver a few sets of railroad tracks. Then drive over the same tracks with the SFC.

Kenny Browns and I love them. Nice Zinc coating doesn't look bad either.

I've had BMR boxed weld in, my custom made from OTE ones, and if i ever did it again, i'd be doing the Wolfe through the floor bars. LOTS of work involved, but definitely worth it for me

Id do both, bolt them in and then weld them
