Mustang got the subrframes connected

After about 4 years of planning, I finally got a set of subframe connectors put on my car . I bought a set of MM FL connectors about 3 years ago and never got them on and still haven't. I got a set of griggs put on and I must say, completely different car. Its almost orgasmic


Just thought yall would like to know about my pleasures of the day.

Congrats man.

I've got some Steedas for my '91 vert and I've just been to lazy to get them put on myself. I actually bought them before I picked up the car.

Good to hear. I have the steeda ones as well waiting to get welded on. I actually have the undercoating all stripped off, the brackets bolted in, and the interior all a part to take the carpet up. Even have the welder in the garage. Just waiting for my buddy to get some time to weld them up.

Stephen, congrats on getting them installed. What is the biggest difference that you notice? I'm curious, as I've always debated getting a set for my '99, assuming it would help the longevity of the chassis over the years.

It just feels more solid. Like its actually one car versus two, especially when cornering at higher speeds. I also feel less understeer then before. But just how much more solid the car feels as a whole is amazing. Almost orgasmic to say the least.

Thanks for the pictures.

Can you use them to jack the car up?

Yep you sure can. Part of the reason I went with them. I have a set of MM FL but decided against using them because they are about twice as thick but hollow. Not only are these a solid piece, but I can still get a jack underneath the car.

They are a Griggs set. The shop I got them put on is a certified Griggs installer and had them in stock.

One of the best mods for a sn95 car period.

I'm ordering them once the engine is fixed. Fox guys also agree that it's the best mod for pre-S197 Mustangs.

It is most definitely so close to the top it might as well be considered #1
