Mustangs from 2004 and earlier are based on a really old chassis and need to be reinforced before you add mods to increase power. Subframes are a very inexpensive mod which will form the basis of mods you do in the future. We sell subframes from various manufacturers including Griggs Racing, Maximum Motorsports, & Global West. For most people we recommend the Griggs Std. Subframes which we sell for only $189.99 INSTALLED.<br /><br />Anyone who's had a good set of subs installed will tell you it made a tremendous difference in the way the car feels and handles. Your car will feel much more stiffer and solid.<br /><br />Mike Mak<br />Apex Motorsports<br />ApexMotorsports.com<br />2555 Lafayette Blvd. Suite #122<br />Santa Clara, CA 95054<br />Phone: 408/588-0075 Fax: 408/588-0089<br /><br />Griggs Racing, Maximum Motorsports, Evolution Motosports, SCT, Racelogic, H&R, Ford racing, Kenne Bell, MAC, Bassani, Vortech, Powerdyne, AMSoil, Koni, Hawk, AFR, Tokico, Global West, Racelogic <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Jmir018</b> <br /><small>Member # 1414</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,7,21,0,19,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Mike, can you please pm me a quote for the steeda chromemoly subframe connectors. or in case eyou don't carry those for the MM full lentgh. <br />Thanks,<br />Jersey <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Mach0ne351</b> <br /><small>Member # 927</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,7,21,1,30,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> a tune is RECOMMENDED with all those mods. you might be running lean if you mess with the airflow of the car....especially with full exhaust, plenum, TB and CAI...get a dyno run after your mods to just be sure and safe....<br /><br />marek <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Apexmotorsports</b> <br /><small>Member # 5307</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,7,21,2,42,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by Jmir018:<br /><strong> Mike, can you please pm me a quote for the steeda chromemoly subframe connectors. or in case eyou don't carry those for the MM full lentgh. <br />Thanks,<br />Jersey </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Jersey,<br /><br />I will have Chris send you a PM or you contact him via PM 03SHKER OR email at chris@apexmotorsports.com.
