Which type of subframe connectors are best for ground clearance?
I want to get some, but since my car is lowered I also don't want to drag on everything. Anybody else out there w/ lowered cars and subframe connectors, which kind do you have? Thanks.

My 85 IROC is not lowered, but I lose no ground clearance, and I experience no difficulties with the exhaust. If you'd like photos, feel free to e-mail me.

My car is lowered with Bell tech spindles (2"). I had the same concerns as you. I went with Hotchkis. The didnt effect the clearance at all.
