Where to get subframes and Torque boxes

[94 DropTop]

I for see me ripping out the torque boxes in the next couple of months :coolsmiley:So i figured i better do somthing to stop that.Where should i get full length subframs and torque boxes for the best price? The UPR full lengths say they come with some kind of torque box plate, but is that the same one that comes in a upper and lower kit?

 

[94 DropTop]

Anyone know where to get the best deal.

I got my SFC from MM. Don't get the powdercoated ones like I did. You have to grind a bunch of shit off anyways.

 

[uncltrvlnmatt]

I bought my subs from Jeggs.

MM SFCs are the best....There is no doubt about that :boink:

 

[94 DropTop]

ya i was debating between them and upr. Where should i get the torque boxes at. or should i just get the seams welded first?

its just a piece of metal bar, theres no design behind it, except for the "ingenius" idea to have a couple bends in them. Stangsuspension will hook you up. Go full lengths, steedas, mm's, whatever, they are all the same damn thing. And handz, if you choose to argue about it, then god save your soul you dumb f'er

I almost typed about my Maximum Motorsports SFC's. I had no idea what those torque boxes were and thought I may be way off! I got my full-length bare ones from Amer Muscle, I think. Painted them right before I had them installed!

There is no Comparison Between the UPR and MM pieces. The MM pieces are Top Notch Designed and are so strong they can be used as a jacking point...so you can jack right from the center of the car.

Give Josh at StangSuspension a call and Take advantage of out forum discount.

All SFC ARE NOT the Same and ARE NOT just pieces of metal. every company uses there own design and there is a HUGE difference between Regular SFCs and Full Length SFCs. MM SFCs Are Leaps and Bounds better then everyone elses including Steeda and UPR (BS). MM SFCs are 53% stronger than the competitors and Fitment is Great.... There only other SFC that comes close Was Kenny Brown....But Kenny Brown went out of Business because MM Stuff is like gold.

A little Info from MM Steven.....

Maximum Motorsports created the first "Full-length" subframe connectors many years ago. This is yet another MM product that others have copied. Beware of the copycatsâ€â€MM's are still the best quality. We have now improved on our original design by increasing the length and height of the connector tube. The resulting XL Series connector is much stiffer than any other subframe connector.

The MM Full-Length Connectors stiffen the chassis far more than our standard connectors. The taller tubing of the new XL Series creates a connector that is 95% stiffer than the standard subframe connector. The XL connector tubing is 53% stiffer than our previous Full-length subframe connectors. Beware of connectors from companies who lack the engineering expertise to design their own products. Some have copied our previous design. The new XL Series connectors are 53% stiffer than those copies.

The increased length, method of attachment, and stiffer tubing of the XL Series connector means there is no need for jacking rails. Because of the strength of our tubing; you can lift the car by placing a jack anywhere along the length of the connector tube!

The new XL Series Full-length Subframe Connectors extend from the rear lower control arm attachment point on the rear subframe all the way up to the firewall. This provides substantially more weld area between the connector and the chassis than other connectors. At 65", the extra length, increased number of attachment points, and extra height in the tubing make this the stiffest subframe connector available.

The XL Series Full-length Subframe Connectors are made of 1.5" x 2" x .083" wall thickness rectangular tubing. The thinner wall tubing is used to lessen the weight, while the taller dimension increases stiffness by 95% over our standard connectors.

We add reinforcing plates at each bend to prevent the flexing that would otherwise occur with the thinner wall tubing.

We seal the tubing by welding on end caps to prevent moisture from getting inside the connector and rusting them from the inside out.

Our connectors are custom shaped to hug the floor pan of your Mustang for maximum ground clearance.

The MM XL Series Full-Length Subframe Connectors have seat braces that are to be welded to the connector tube during installation. This customizes the fitment to match the car. This is the best method to account for variations in the floor pan.

k well if you want to completely go off of what the manu says on there website at MM, you should take what steeda, and upr says. Not downing on MM, but wtf do you honestly think they are going to say?

"Pretty much the same shit everyone else sells, just our name on it"
No, they're going to inflate there product and get top dollar for there name brand parts, when joe bob (myself) can go down to the local steel yard, get the same tubing, a couple brooskies, a buddy, a torch, and hammer later, I can have the same shit you do. If you honestly believe everything you hear from MM, then I guess their Strut tower brace gives you 1.21 gigawatts in order for you to go back in time and get you some vintage weed or something. Bro you get fucking ridiculous sometimes with your nut swinging, no strike that, nut swallowing.

 

[SRT Handz]

Some of your comments steven are pretty uncalled for. :nonono:

Think what you may. If you think you can build a Ferrari then go ahead.....so if you think you can built a better product than MM then go ahead too. I am really not gonna argue with you about it.

Just as it says under your Avitar, "Ignorance is bliss" Right?

 

[Steven]

zach said it best. And guess what, ferraris were originally built, from guys just like me. All cars were, all performance is. John force started in his garage, so do I, so does everyone on this forum. It's not above me physically and mentally to build a super car, just the means and tools are what I don't have. Comments were and have been uncalled for from a long time ago against me, You've done spread a bad reputation of yourself on every forum i've been on, and I don't think coming in here so abruptly is a smart idea on your part if you have any hope of ever being liked on a forum ever again.

 

[94 DropTop]

well thanks. never even though about going through stang suspension. Ill pickup the mm ones they are the cheapest around. Thanks guys. now i just need to find a good price on torque boxes.

 

[Steven]

you'll really like the difference The cars feel much better and much more solid afterwards.

 

[97vertstang]

i know dalamar is another MM supporter, so i will take handz reasoning on this one.

 

[CC'S95GT]

i think C J PONY PARTS also carries subframes and torque boxes for you to ck prices.

 

[DropTopPony]

I think this bashing on Handz crap is gonna end now. Next person i see jump on him for no reason at all will be on a vacation.

go with Steeda or MM, and MM is not the end all suspension powerhouse that everyone makes them out to be. Yes they have some good products, but they dont make EVERYTHING the best. And i have been told by more than one shop that MM subframes aren't the best fitting ones available...

+1... I had to get a little creative to get mine in.

 

[SRT Handz]

I installed mine and they lined up perfect so i was satisfied
