[QUOTE="rsilver, post: 9165722, member: 13810"] All good points about the sub frames. I just wanted to be able to return it to stock as easy as possible. I have modified so many cars and when it comes time to sell, the more stock the better IMO. I have done sub frames on several F-body vert flexible flyers so I know what you guys mean. I just wanted to float the idea and see if there was compromise, but I guess not. I looked at the stock SFC's and they are weak at best. What do you guys think about going to thicker wall 1.5X1 or 2X1 rectangular tubing, bending them to fit and just bolting them on to the stock location? I know welding is better, I know full length is better, I know, I know..... and I can grind off the welds if i ever want to take em out, but those 1X1 stock SFC's are almost worthless cause of the light guage and small size. The two bolt mounting points look pretty good though and given a stronger structural piece, it could make a signifigant difference. It just an Idea, and given I am looking for a compromise, it might be enough.......your thoughts are apprecited......bob [/QUOTE]
