Quote: Aren't the factory rockers in effect thick gauge sorta-square tubes connecting the front and rear subframes? If so, what do aftermarket subrame connectors do that they don't? Just add strength to the connection because you now have four subrame connectors instead of two? Perform some other function? <snip!>
I thought the same for decades. The I started to notice that newer Mopars -- every B-van, Cherokee, Neon, Stratus, etc. had what was effectively "frame connectors" from the factory, which they started referring to as "uniframe" design. So I give some simple 2X2" tubing a shot (A-body). Holy cow, the first block, I was fairly well freaked out. The difference in platform rigidity was instantly noticeable.
2X3" (slit the floor) is obviously even better.
The sawtooth ones are surely a cleaner installation, but are only as strong as the narrowest point.
Take your pick. But do something! You'll never look back!
