I have the Kenny Brown ones that I got a loooong time ago, no complaints they work fine. If I could do over i'd probably get the MM full length ones.

You put them on just like anyh other SFC. Make sure all 4 wheels are under a load, and put them up and weld em on, after you grind of course.

They won't require any further modifications to be installed on a convertible.

If you look passed the advertising (which does Steeda sell good stuff btw) this video shows "how-to" install sfc:

I have the old style Roush round tube SFC, they work really well. If I were to buy a set now Id get the MM Full length ones.

MM full lengths are one of my most favorite mods! The car instantly felt so much more solid & responsive ...they give a strong platform for the suspension to work off of & everything builds confidence in the car.

have a reputable shop do it. they should use dial gauges to ensure the car is straight before they weld them in.... especially on a convertable.

i suggest kenny brown SFCs, or if you cant find some of those, settle with maximum motorsports full length powder coated ones. thats what i got and i love 'em.

I just don't see a point in full length powder coated ones , when you gotta grid a bunch of the powder coat off to weld them then what's ur solution some rattle can ? I just buy them raw and por 15 them. But my whole underneath of my car has been por 15'd and then a nice undercoating. I like the mm ones that's what I used on my fox as for my yellow car, I had a chassis shop do them along with my battle box's there custom made and way better then any store bought stuff

Yeah my shop really thanked me for NOT getting the powdercoated ones....it takes them so much longer to grind the powdercoating off where they need to weld....a whole lot of work for them & costs more that way too.

Most likely go to someone reputable to get it done. I don't know how to weld.
