Question about subframe connectors...
I am considering building myself some subframe connectors. I however have never seen any installed on thirdgens.
Where is the best position to mount them?
for max rigidity.
how strong do they need to be?
are they usually mounted to prevent wheelhop/dif twist or solely frame twist?
sorry if these are stupid questions.
thanks!

This is my first attempt at posting a pic so I hope it all goes well. Hopefully u will see the diagram that came with my Hotchkis sub frames.
You could make them your self using 1 1/2 inch steel tubing it shouldnt be that hard if u have access to a welder. I got mine for $249 Canadian, He also had a no name set for about a $100. Hope this helps a bit!
