Jegsters subframe connected problem
I'm not sure how to install these. Looks like my exhaust will be in the way. Can someone provide a picture of the install, and a little detail on how to get these things on? I know the basics of installation I'm going to bolt them on then get them welded. Please help me out I'm stuck
Re: Jegsters subframe connected problem
Your exhaust is either not stock, or it is stock but has broken hangers and is drooping low. Either way you''l have to take the car to an exhaust shoop and have them clearance your problem. THey would most likely be able to install the SFC's for you at that time also. Inner style SFC's are not as critical to square the chassis prior to install. Just drive the car onto the flat hoist with the tires still on the ground(ramps).

Re: Jegsters subframe connected problem
You should be able to install the LCA to frame bolt in them, then swing them right up into place. I may have had to slide the right one in above the exhaust before bolting it in to the rear.
These are super easy to install. The rear bolt ties into the LCA-to-frame bolt and aligns them so that holes can be drilled up front. They should tuck up nicely above any exhaust issues unless your exhaust is hanging out to the right and really tight to the floor. Exhaust hanging low should make install super-super easy.

You can drop the exhaust some by loosening the y at the manifolds but it looks to me like it should fit. You may not get to one of the bolt holes once it's up there without temporarily moving the exhaust, but I wouldn't worry too much about one bolt. The other go in fine?
