Sub frame connectors- Is this possible?
Wow! Just installed a pair of custom sub-frame connectors and boxed my stock lower control arms. Is it just my imagination or is this possibly the best bang for the buck possible? I spent about $20 bucks on materials and did it myself, but even if I had spent over $200 it still would have been a bargain. Car rides better, steers straighter, doors shut better, creaks and rattles seem less noticable- the car simply feels "tighter". The suspension is reaction more when going over sharp bumps instead of the "bang and vibration" it had before. There's also a mechanical feel transmitted through the car when shifting through the gears. It's cool! This may be old news to some of you, but if anyone like me has never experianced this and is considering added them to a third gen- I say DO IT! If I'd known how much of an improvement it makes, I would have made it the very first mod. Now I am considering LCARB's and ureathane bushings. My LCA's are 1 1/4" lower in the front than the rear. Anyone have any comments/suggestions/advise?

Yeah, go for the LCA relocation brackets. I had bad wheel hop and my lca's were lower in the front also. With the new brackets and in the bottom hole, it made a world of difference. No more wheel hop and better 60ft times at the track.
