REDLYNE Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 So, I am looking for full-length sub-frame connectors to weld-on to my snake. Any reccommendations or experiences worth sharing? I've got to order these...and then get them installed with the GKN Stage III half-shafts that have been sitting in my garage for almost a year! Someone please advise...as I've heards most normal mustang sub-frames have to be cut and/or re-sized?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COBRA90GT Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Maximum Motorsports full-length subframe connectors here. Love 'em. Make sure you get the "full-length" type (no matter which brand you decide to go with). My .02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAME Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 I was extremely impressed with Maximum Motorsports subframe connex and other parts. Cant go wrong with MM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDLYNE Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 Thanks a bunch guys!! I will definitely look into MM. Did they have to be adjusted to fit on the Cobra with IRS? I heard some full-lenths had to be adjusted or cut.... :shrug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExIntegra Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Just thought I'd add a link to a source for Kenny Brown parts. http://www.rpmoutlet.com/machmatrix.htm If anyone's not familiar with the Kenny Brown story it's here: http://www.kennybrown.com/news_health_aug06.cfm Does anyone know if the parts from "rpmoutlet" are legitimate? Is it "OK" to buy from them (I'd hate to be part of cheating the guy who built up the business). Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JETSOLVER Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Steeda full length (Cr. Mly) with seat supports here. They required notching to clear the 96-98 tranny crossmember, but it was easy and the parts are first rate. Remember to tack and weld with weight on the wheels, and use sticth welding to prevent heating up the carpeting and the underlay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLPRacing Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I have the Kenny Brown subframes on my 01 vert that were installed in 2002. They made a huge difference in stiffness. So far no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldracer Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 We went with Steeda Full length with seat brackets, also Zinc coated on the 02 "GT vert......excellent fit and fairly straightforward install.... We are also putting them on the '93 LX 5.0 shortly. Maximum, Griggs or Kenny Brown are all good too...I don't think the brand matters as much as the install by a competent welder/shop.... Hope this helps you some John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A drive on lift is what you need. good luck, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mblgjr Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 MM Full Length/XL units should be great. Absolutely make sure they are installed on a drive on lift and you may want to seriously consider pulling the carpet up before doing the welding to prevent any possibility of burning through.

99 KOBRA Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 MM Full Length/XL units should be great. Absolutely make sure they are installed on a drive on lift and you may want to seriously consider pulling the carpet up before doing the welding to prevent any possibility of burning through. A good installer can weld them on without damaging the carpet. JBA has welded connectors on 3 of my Cobras without removing the carpet.

jonas1022 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Drive on lift, and make sure the frame is square. Otherwise the car will always have the "twist" that the lift gave it while it sat there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
