Fox body 5.0 subframe connectors
 

Which subframe connectors did you other Fox body Mustang Stockers use? I'm ready to do it, better late than never. Thanks, Tim

I don't think the brand necessarily makes that much different. You are probably going to have to re-route or tweak some brake lines or fuel lines with any kind, and you will have to get all that stuff out of the way anyway to weld them on. I put Jegs bolt on type on my car a long time ago ( probably 10 years) and they seem to work fine. I think it is important to beef up the torque boxes (where the stock control arms mount) as well-especially if you have a stick car.

The best thing I ever did was to make my own and incorporate them into the floor. It makes a world of difference on stiffening the car. Of course it is a lot of work, but worth it.

I agree .Make your own. They'll fit better and be stronger.

yeah, I found out today I've definitely had some torque box movement

Those are some good connectors there. They have the seat frame bolt tie-ins.

I custom made my son's front TS 2" x 2" x 1/8". Took about 5 hours on a lift with a tubing bender right there. Unlike the picture, I ran his all the way back to where the stock frame rail turns to go up and all the way to a similar point in the front. I did not cut the floor pan, but I bent them to fit as tight to the follor as close as possible. Then I took a floor jack and a 2 x4 and kept jacking the connector up to the floor. I did weld it completely where it was tight to the floor (most of the connector). My son's car is a stick shift car with more that 2,500 launches @ 5,600 to 6,000 RPM. The torqure boxes are stock, un-reinforced. The car is a low HP car with a 340 HP Ford Crate motor.

Wolf Racecraft makes a real nice through the floor sub frame connector.
