Big power and competitive corners can bend your unibody vehicle like a pretzel! Build a better foundation for power with a set of weld-in subframe connectors from Summit Racing Equipment.
Back in the 1960s and 1970s, cars like Mustangs, Novas, Camaros, Firebirds, and Challengers featured unibody construction, which was great for everyday driving. However, as hot rodders and racers started adding power, they found that the subframes would flex under serious load, resulting in poor handling, crooked launches, and even metal fatigue.

Back in the 1960s and 1970s, cars like Mustangs, Novas, Camaros, Firebirds, and Challengers featured unibody construction, which was great for everyday driving. However, as hot rodders and racers started adding power, they found that the subframes would flex under serious load, resulting in poor handling, crooked launches, and even metal fatigue. Weld-in subframe connectors were developed to tie the subframes together, resulting in less flex and more traction!

Bolt-on subframe connectors are great for weekend warriors who may want to remove the connectors later, but for dedicated race vehicles with serious horsepower, weld-in subframe connectors are the way to go. They keep your tires firmly planted and your chassis straight, so all that power you’re making goes right to the pavement.

UMI Performance boxed weld-in subframe connectors are necessary chassis upgrades when racing and hard driving habits are present. UMI Performance boxed weld-in subframe connectors greatly improve your car's handling ability, while reducing T-top squeaks, dash rattles, and quarter-panel flexing. Subframe connectors essentially tie the front and rear steel subframes together, resulting in a stiffened and strengthened chassis, allowing for better weight transfer and improved traction when launching. When strength is a concern, square tubing has greater torsion resistance over tubular designs. They will work with all aftermarket exhaust systems and will not affect ground clearance. Their weld-in style requires no bolts to tighten and offer less chance of flex when compared with bolt-in types.

Stifflers Suspension weld-on subframe connectors are engineered to be stiff, lightweight, and easy to install. These full-length connectors are manufactured from 1.5 in. x 2 in. x .083 in. rectangular tubing. They are optimized using CAD/CAE software to provide the ultimate in stiffness, reduced weight, and maximized surface area between the subframe and connector. Stifflers subframe connectors feature crimped and welded tube ends to seal out moisture, while also increasing strength, and a laser-cut cross brace that reduces free span, reinforces the floor pan, and minimizes required welding during installation. All is given an industrial-grade powdercoat for long life. Welding areas are pre-masked, so no removal of powdercoat is needed before installation--a real time-saver!

The 1967-69 F-body was designed in an era when high performance driving and modern tire technology weren't as prevalent. Their unibody chassis, while innovative at the time, can flex and twist under stress, particularly when cornering aggressively or accelerating hard. QA1's bolt-on subframe connectors offer a simple and effective solution to this common issue. They tackle the flex issue by increasing frame rigidity, leading to a significant improvement in handling performance—especially during cornering, acceleration, and braking. The tubular design connects the front Camaro/Firebird subframe to the rear subframe, providing additional structural support and stiffness to the chassis. Additional details: * Included solid body mounts and hardware further reduce chassis flex. Their aluminum construction offers a noise-free alternative to polyurethane. * Thoughtful design: The QA1 subframe connector contours to follow the body lines for a factory-like look without sacrificing ground clearance. * Easy bolt-in installation makes the upgrade hassle-free. * Fitment notes: Does not fit convertibles.

Detroit Speed weld-on subframe connectors join your front subframe and rear frame rails to increase your car's stiffness. These uniquely designed DSE connectors are fabricated from thick-wall rectangular steel tubing. They are bent and TIG-welded in a fixture for accuracy and repeatability. Unlike others, these DSE subframe connectors are barely visible from underneath the car, offering maximum ground clearance. Plus, they won't interfere with seat attachment hardware or the installation and removal of the rear leaf spring pocket. And, your molded factory carpet will still fit over the subframe connectors. Detroit Speed weld-on subframe connectors can be installed on convertibles and are supplied with templates, pictures, and detailed instructions for installation.
