Thinking of getting a Stage II lower tie bar from Blemco

Anybody here installed one? How effective is it?

warpspeed subframe connectors connects the whole under chassis to each other instead of half just a suggestion

I called warpspeed about the SFCs... they are no longer making them

Truax might be the last one out there!

Still on the fence... 350 plus install cost... I just spent 200 on my y-pipe.. dang was happy about tax refund... but its depleting fast!

This is a better bang for the buck. I have a set on my A32 and they make the car feel like its back on stock wheels again.

Thanks for the info guys! I think the Truax Subframe is great but that blows my budget - Im not really thinking of doing any auto crossing. The collars are way within budget but I need to do some more reading on it.

I don't think that Matt makes the LTBII anymore, but if you could find one used for a good price, I would definitely jump on it. Great mod if the price is right.

A used LTBII would be no more than $100 to $125 shipped on the expensive end.

As I said above, Matt doesn't make the LTBII new anymore. So used is the only option. The SFCs are definitely a good option of you have the money to spend. But $100 shipped for a used LTB is great if thats all you can spend.

I've read great things about the Stage 2 LTB. I'd get one - especially if you don't want to spend $350+ on SFCs.

I'm not knocking the SFCs, but personally I can't justify them for that price.

That's why so many people are jumping in on the SFC GD then, right?

read the reviews of them...$350 bucks short notice cant be easy for everyone to swing...hence not everyone jumping on it, no matter if youre a lame little female rolling your eyes or not

the Subframe connecters seem amazing and worth alot of pennies, but dont forget install prices either, unless you have a 4 point lift and welding experience.
