I want to know from the beginning to the end of the subframes straight across. Like on hotchkis or competition, it kinda v shapes but I want straight across nto down the v. I think spohns though are straight so just straight across would be great.

measurements have been asked for before and I still havent found a post with them on it. Its like nobody wants to post measurements of their SFC's forceing the other person to either screw up what their making or just buying a set cause they cant find measurements to go by when attempting to make there own.


What kind of Subs you got Walter?

you don't have to work for nasa to make SFCs. if you need the measurements jack your car up get under it and pull a tape where you want them to connect. all you need to do is hit the front and back SFs.

Stuff and some quick measurements...

Subs? everyone around here calls them SFCs (including in this post) so I thought you were talking about something different.

I have Spohn SFCs..

Passenger side one is shorter... 60 1/2"s
Drivers side is 64 3/8"

They both have a phlange on an end that matches up with your LCA bolt holes and your are supposed to bolt them in on that end... the bolt holes are about 1/2" from the end and about 1" long

Don't have pics sorry, no camera yet... (it's the next purchase)
