How to eliminate body flex??

I have a 89 TA with t-tops, when I drive into or leave my driveway, you can feel the car twist slightly. I was wondering what is the best and easiest way to stiffen the frame.

Get some subframe connectors. They do just what they are called. They connect the two subframes together and stiffen up the car dramatically. You can get the ones from SouthSide Machine through Summit for around $150. All you need is for someone to weld them in.

I just installed Alston on my 92 convertible Z. $179 from them without the bolts (they suggest welding them anyway) Well worth it.
