Subframe connectors?????

Will the ones off my 92 t-top car fit a 91 vert I just got?

I hear they wont. If not who makes a good set for a vert?

Thanks

it depends on what type you had. some will fit both depending on the routing of ths sfc's. like the tds sponsor above. if you need new parts. spohn has excellent workmanship/fit.

The Hotchkiss SFC's are a perimiter-mount SFC. They will not fit your convertible. Read the description of the version I sell and it will clarify why.

SOrry no pic's of em installed. IMO. subframes connectors are subframe connectors. If they would work on my vert Id reuse em..

Which do you guys think is better Hotchkis or Spohn? I heard someone say the Spohns are a perimeter style- what kind of style are the Hotchkis SFCs? Which style is stronger- the tubular spohns or the boxed Hotchkis'? And most importantly, which one will be easiest to install, I don't want to make any mods to my exhaust, it is the stock exhaust, the car is an '89 IROC-Z 350 TPI, single cat. Tell me what you guys think. -89IRO

MAC makes some just like the alstons everyone likes for verts.

and they only cost 99bucks... Look just like the $200 ones alston makes that TDS sales...

I was just talking to Tommy" MrIROC Z" aka MrZ06

He has the MAC's and said he likes em.. and his vert is verry nice..
