hey, I was wondering how hard it is to install subframe connectors. There is a set locally for pretty cheap, but I don't know how hard they are to install. One of my friends dad can weld, and has access to a lift, but is there any thing we should be careful with? He is a mechanic but none of us have ever done subframes.

They're a piece of cake if you have the tools to do it. You'll need a grinder and a welder.

Have any idea what kind of sfc's they are?

make sure the car is sitting on the suspension when you weld them and not being lifted by the frame. You want the car sitting like it does when it's on the road.

They are fairly cheap to begin with when new so find the ones you need for your car. I like the MM full length and wish they were available when i bought my car but the Kenny Browns i have do the job.
