Group Purchase for SFC's & suspension mods

If any one is intrested in a group purchase for sub frame connectors let me know. Although they are relatively cheap. Jegs has them for I think $83 from LakeWood. If you are intrested in other suspension performace parts let me know. We can vote on a part. Lets try to get a deal.

Personally I am in favor of the SFC's, because my RS is a T-top. Although I plan to have group purchases for both parts and a lot more. So is everyone in favor of the SFC's. Jegs and Summit both have SFC's for $79.99 right now. I am waiting for them to get back with me on a deal.

For the SFC's the weld in and the bolt-ons are the same price. We should do the SFC purchase first then do the STB in about a week or two after this is purchase is over. Still waiting on a reply.

I am not sure, I will check with them when they get back with me. I think convertables have the same set up but I am not sure, search the boards a little bit I am sure you will be able to find out

Are you looking online or in the magazine? I see CE's SFC's. Bolt in - $239.99 and will not clear factory exhaust. Weld in - $84.99
I found this from the latest Jeg's.

I have looked in both and on the internet is cheaper. We are going for the weld-in SFC's they are currently $79.99. I should have more details on cost and how to order them early this coming week.

I have talked to a few companys and still negotiating prices. I need to know the exact amount of people that are going to be buying the SFC's. E-mail me with our names. I do not know if the will work on convertables or if they will clear factory exhaust. It is not hard to modify exhaust. Let me know who is in and we whould be ordering these shortly.

I just installed a set of Steve Spohn's SFCs (WHAT a difference!) and I'm ready for the STB, LCAs, & panhard bar.
