How many of you guys have them installed? any major difference? anyone have pics of SFC's installed? Thinking of getting some for my project car.

 

I have two sets on my 'vert and have been told it rides nicer than a hardtop car....

I've posted pics of them on here before, just search the forum with my username

definitely a must have for any 3rd gen, let alone a 'vert

 

Thanks, I thought there was only one mfg making them for convertible. Gladto see other choices. Think I'm getting some from TDS

 

I have the Alstons, and the SPohns

Both have their merits, but I do snag the Alstons on some steeper business entrances.

 

I believe umi make some too.. jaysz28 I looked threw ut threads and a lot of ur posts but couldn't find ur underbody pics I am very interested to see how u have 2 sets of connectors under the car.. as I'm in the process of my build where I'm cleaning the underbody n would like to get theses installed before I herculine my underbody

 

I think 89 onwards you can only use Spohn and Alston because of the sheet metal box on the inside of the rocker panels.

 

Ohhh didn't know that n its not listed on there site.. thanks

 

Well I just searched for my username in this forum, and here is the thread

https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/conv...onnectors.html

and here is the link to my pics....

I have Alstons, night and day difference, worth every penny.

 

Looks nice with the Spohn & Alston connectors together!
Does anyone have a link on where to buy the Alstons?

Do both come unpainted?

 

Top Down Solutions is the only place off the top of my head

I think they come bare

the Spohns come bare or powder coated in red and/or black

 

hear is my UMI subs welded on earlier this week, thinking of getting the alstons also

 

When I bought my Alstons they were painted black. I did have to trim down a little bit of the mounting area at the front of the passenger side sfc when I was installing my Spohn cross member for the T56, but it's not a lot. This wouldn't affect anyone who's not doing a T56 conversion though.










I do plan on getting a second set of SFC's like Spohn later, and I will be finishing my undercoating this winter also. I know it looks kind of tacky with only part of the car black under there.

 

Oh and you can see in that last picture where I scrape on my passenger side sfc. My car is lowered.

 

Our SFC's will work on the convertible models. A customer sent me pictures at one time with them installed on a convertible but I can't locate them.

I hope that helps,
Ryan

 

Ryan, do your sfcs fit the 89 models up where GM have added the sheet metal boxes along the sills? I know they fit the earlier models but not sure about the later ones. thanks.

 

Yes they do, it was a 91 or 92 the last customer used them on that sent me pictures.

Hope this helps!
Ryan

 

the photos I posted earlier in the thread are on a convertible
