here is the info from the global west website

Subframe connectors:
Through "hands on " experience dealing with Mustangs for over 20 years, we have reached several
conclusions:


Subframe connectors should tie into bulk head areas. This means full length subframes (not 3/4
length subframes).
Subframes must be welded to the chassis. Bolting a subframe does little for torsional rigidity.
We have found that round tube subframes resist twist better than square tube designs, per given
weight.
Subframes should be strong enough to allow you to place a jack anywhere along it's structure and
raise the vehicle.
Subframes should be constructed with .125 wall roll cage material in order to handle chassis loads.

Features :
Subframes are constructed with 1020 seamless .125 wall roll cage tubing, 1-5/8" diameter .
Subframe gussets are all made out of 3/16 material.
Our subframes in most cases, will not affect ground clearance.
Subframes will not interfere with your exhaust systems (excluding side exhaust).
Floor pan does not require cutting for proper installation.
Interior does not need to be removed.
All kits come complete with instructions.
Welding required ( MIG or TIG recommended ).
