S&W Subframe Connectors and TQ Arm setups?
 
Just stumbled across this company and took a look at the systems they sell. I must say they look impressive. I would like to know if anyone has these and if there are any issues with the kit? I see a cross member they add for a TQ Arm mount and it looks like it may hinder ground clearance a bit. There is also no word of a weld in system which I prefer and they offer 2 materials, mild steel and chromoly.
Thanks.

Edit: Just did a good search and saw many comments about the ground clearance. Does anyone have any shots of this kit installed on a lowered vehicle????

Theres no reason you cant weld the set up in, ^he did on the frame rails and rockers but not the floor mounts.

Thanks but I'm well aware you can weld it. I was more/less questioning why they didn't offer a weld only kit. After seeing pictures and speaking with them today, my main concern is still with ground clearance.

yup yup. that's my setup on my car and I am a big time fan of it. its built to be very comprehensive. it ties in the unibody not just at the normal sfc points, but also via the rockers and via sandwich plates THROUGH the sheet metal floor. it's not ultra rigid where you feel vibration, but also not flexible like two simple mounted (front-to-back only) SFC bars would be since they are not connected to each other. 5 years later.. and not one complaint.. the only thing I could foresee being a problem is if I wanted to ever run a true dual exhaust.. might get tricky under there
