Well it doesn't matter at all if there "bolt on" or "weld on" heres why. . . If there bolt ons they can always be welded later, no matter what. If left bolted on over time the bolts (with out being welded) will pidgin hole do to the vehicle flexing over time. Most people will buy weld ons because they can attempt to weld them by there self at home and it cuts coast down same can be done with bolt ons too. People by bolt ons to also cut cost down if they Don't have the tools like a welder they bolt them on and drive the car to a shop that will weld them on for them. either way you could do the prep work to both "weld on" and "bolt on" to get it ready to take to a shop. You can weld either style at home too. In my honest opinion i wont weld my own on even when i have the tools and skills to do so. i personally like to prep all the areas being welded and have the cars put on a frame rack this insures the car is indeed 100% straight when there welded on and will remean that wall

Also its really up to the individual to decide what sub frames are the best, they all do the same basic thing some have better designs and incorporate more welded areas but again all do the basic thing

i like the idea of the bolt ons. so i can actually make sure there what i want, then rather weld and be stuck.
