Re: questions about subframe connectors

Weld in- bolt ins will eventually elongate the bolt holes and you are back to 'square one'.

Lon at Top Down Solutions seems to have the best ones for the price- pull the carpet(or lift it with some 2X4s so you don't set it on fire and have a muffler shop with a ROLL ON LIFT weld them in for you.

I agree micktroup either Lon's (which are Alston's) or Spohn's The one's from TDS are $184 poweder coated or the Spohn's for $195 non powder coated and it is $45 additional for the powder coating.
