    Daytona (G-Body) Subframe connectors

    Hi All, I am talking to someone about making subframe connectors for the Daytona. Basically my t-top car could use them, and I am sure others with t-top cars know what I mean. They guy who I am talking to engineered and sells them for the Taurus SHO. I have them on my 89 SHO and it made the car very stiff.
    If anyone is interested send me a message.

    Also, I think that the G-body ones could/should work on J and H too?

    I can talk to him about it, i know most of our eeks are very similar underneath. He'd probably need to be able to look at the floorpans of a few different bodies. Anyone in socal with a P, J, H that want's to help out on this?

    Re: Daytona (G-Body) Subframe connectors

    I wouldn't mind a set for an AA either. I wonder what all would be different between the different body styles? I'm guessing length mostly. If that's all it is, then maybe he could make a 2-piece "universal" set that just needs cut to the proper length and welded together during installation.
    Just an idea...

    Re: Daytona (G-Body) Subframe connectors

    Update. To do these in bulk meaning at least 25 people want these for the G-body, the price would be $100 a set. If only one or two people want them more like $330. Let me know if you want these, as I am wanting a s et for my car either way.

    I know alot of folks want these for other bodies, but lets start with the g-body folks first!

    Ok, I have 7 sets of subframe connectors wanted so far, but to male them affordable I need at least ten sets, so I need three more people who are interested.

    Cool Re: Daytona (G-Body) Subframe connectors

    Hi my name is Matt and I am helping with this.

    I would like to be able to help you guys out with this in providing the products but we will need more interest. This could be considered a "basic" kit and from there you can add on if you wish. I am sure this will really stiffen up the car like it does for the SHO. If we can get some more people we can make a go of this.

    Re: Daytona (G-Body) Subframe connectors

    Is this a subframe connector from under the car or one that mounts above the carpet right in front of the back bottom seat? I can see applications for both of them. Not sure which would be better.

    Welded under the car, Matt has pics of the stuff for the SHO, on SHOSOURCE if you want to see what they look like, ours should be similar materials and quality, but designed around our cars.

    I have already taken measurements and they will look very similar to the SHO SFC which look like:



    They will be installed similar to this:



    They will be welded to the underside of the car.
