Subframe connectors

(1/3) > >>

Bolted to Floor:
Hi Guys, I need a set of subframe connectors for my 67 Mustang. I understand that weld-ins would be a better way to go. The car is more for cruising than drag racing, just looking for a way to reduce the flexing. I have added the passenger side torque box. Anyone got a recommendation?
Thanks, John

I know guys that have used these, they are really nice and a clean installation. They are weld in though. If you read the description Global West doesn't believe bolt in connectors will function on a Mustang. They are available from Summit and Jegs also.

Heo:
Its 20 years since i had a Mustang but if my memory
is right the reinforcements  from the convertibel was
reproduced.
Inner rockers,torqe boxes,behind rearseat from wheeltub
to wheeltub, if you want a "stock"look

(just a pointles reflection but)
I have worked on a lot of Mustangs for customers
and it apears like the Mustangs sold new in Sweden
all had the torque boxes and the "export"brace even the six cylinder ones
when the ones imported later had sometimes non tq box
sometimes on drivers side and conv. had on both sides

Competiton's 2x2 square tube sub-frame connectors are heavy, weld-in pieces that I put on my "70 Mach 1 long ago....and would still use again today. No other firm I've found even today offers nearly as heavy-duty a connector. See Jeg's, Summit, et al for a purchase.

I purchased these a couple of years ago, they were much less expensive then. I have not installed them but I like the concept they are welded in 2 locations on each end.:
