    I'm sure any body shop / exhaust shop with a welder would do it (for a nominal fee to their beer fund).

      Usually, if you get them bolted in, a good exhaust shop will do the rest of the welding.

          I heard they charge an arm and a leg to weld a cage in. I suppose I'll give them a call and see what they want for subframes.

          Thanks

                Has any put in the Max motorsports full lengths? Look at how long this process is!

                    Well, it all depends on the quality of the work you want done, you get what you pay for.

                    Was the $200 quote including the sub frames? If it wasn't they might have miss understood what you were looking for?

                    It also depends on the connector, the max motorsports take longer, and the Kenny Browns can take hours on end if you include the jacking rails (waste of time and money).

                    Good luck

                      TNT knows what they are doing....AVH is right, you get what you pay for. Call them, you'll probably get John since he's the parts guy...just ask if Tommy is there. My dad knows Tommy and his dad. John sort of knows me, he got me a deal on my trans cooler and guage, good guys up there.

                      How much are you willing to spend to have them put in? I wouldnt trust some shmuck to do it...do it once and do it right

                      PM carnutz too--^

                          Well, I called DB and they said $75 per hour and it's about a 3hr. job he said. Wow, maybe I just thought it was going to be alot cheaper. I think I may set something up with TNT, since I'll be in Blaine this weekend anyways.

                            I have the MM full lengths. They took a few hours to weld. The parts manager at my work does custom exhaust work. He lives/works in Applevalley. He does real good work for cheap. Send me an e-mail if you want his number. He just did a set of subs for my buddy real cheap. 69428scj@msn.com

                              ???????

                              I installed subframe connectors on my 90 and my 88 and it took maybe an hour at most.

                              i can't see it taking more than 2 at most. i welded mine all the way, although they are not thru the floor subs.

                              they have worked great for me, no problems.
