Hi Guys,

Any of you good fellows out there have a pattern, plans or dimensions for subframe links for a 72 ???!!!

Thanks.

Hiya,

Is it subframe connectors you're after? They are a relatively straightforward fit. I can take pics if you need? You can use some straight rollcage tubing / box plate as the main length , and some 1/4inch plate steel to make the ends that connect to the frame.

All you would need to do on the length (tubing / box plate) is angle it slightly, easily done by cutting about half way down the length, creating an angle and welding closed. Definitely run polybushes on the rad support and the middle mounting point, then run a solid bushing on the rear of the subframe (where the subframe attaches to the new connector). You could run solid bushes all around but the ride will be harsher. Depends on what you're going for of course... if you want the best cornering and aren't worried about ride quality, go solid. You can then also go with lowered bushings (about half the height of the originals) which helps to lower the body about 1/2 and inch without needing to do any suspension mods.

Not pics of mine but these are the SFC's i have installed. I can get your more detailed pics if you need:

How to post pics: When writing a message, scroll down and use the "attach file" option. Where possible, a photo sharing service can be used such as Flickr, Imgur etc. The image location (usually ending in .jpg) can be copy and pasted between the ][ brackets that appear when you click the 'Img' button (you can find this button at the top of the message box).

How to post youtube vids: Click on the 'youtubeHD' button at the top of the message box and in the middle of the ][ brackets that just appeared, copy and paste everything from the youtube web address that appears after the = sign i.e if this is the url: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2cNqaPSHv0 just copy "K2cNqaPSHv0").

As Ray says, lots of pics online, and I'm a couple of people her have made some, but I'm guessing just cut some tube for their car at time of fitting..

Here's some more pics in case it helps.









Or go through floor, which is ultimately best, but a lot more work and means cutting a strip out of the floor in rear passenger footwells.

Hi Guys.

Thanks for the pics & information, they look fairly easy to fabricate.
I was just taking the easy route of hoping someone would have pre measured plans/angles etc.

Sorry for the delay in answering your posts.


Thanks again!!!
