EDELBROCK SUSPENSION

Sub-Frame Connectors

For 1994-2002 Mustang GT & 1999-2002 Mustang Cobra

Catalog #5291

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION

Please study these instructions carefully before installing your new sub-frame connectors. If you have any

questions or problems, contact our Technical Hotline at: 1-800-416-8628 from 7 am - 5 pm, Monday through

Friday, Pacific Standard Time or e-mail us at: [email protected].

Application: Designed for 1994-2002 Mustang GT and 1999-2002 Mustang Cobras. Edelbrock Subframe

Connectors have been designed to add strength to the vehicle by connecting the front subframe from the front

suspension cradle mounting points to the rear suspension trailing arm mounts. The Edelbrock subframe

connector has large welding area to resist flex, heavy wall 1 5/8 diameter tubing for stability, and is contoured

to the floor pan of the vehicle so as not to reduce ground clearance.

Tools Required:

1. Common hand tools

2. Drive-on lift (preferred) or floor jack & stands

3. Soft-backed angle grinder / sander

4. C-clamps or Vice grips

5. MIG welder

Notes:

1. Weld-on subframe connectors should be installed by a professional welder with a proper wire feed or

MIG welder. The installer should have an understanding of welding dissimilar metals. The subframe

is formed from thin gauge sheet metal. The bracket of the Edelbrock subframe connectors are made

form 1/8 thick hot rolled steel that has been laser cut and formed to the required shape allowing for

minimum of gap.

2. Subframe connectors should not be installed on a vehicle with subframe damage due to accident or

vehicles that have weak, unequal rate, or improper springs.

3. Due to high production tolerances and wear from age, some vehicles may require fitting of the

subframe connectors. This may require reshaping of the vehicles floor pan or subframe, or minor

grinding of the subframe connectors.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place vehicle on a drive-on style of lift

(preferred) or lift vehicle so as to keep the

suspension loaded with the vehicle weight.

Spring rates must be equal from the left side to

the right side, and the weight of the vehicle must

be supported by the springs during installation

as if the vehicles were on its wheels. If vehicle

is support by its wheels, tire pressures must be

equal, check sidewall of tire for recommended

pressure. Vehicle must not be in a twist or bind

during installation; this condition would cause

the chassis to develop a preload.

2. Disconnect the battery. Pull the carpet or all

flammable materials away from the inside floor

pan in the foot wells on both sides of the

vehicles. Remove the 2 rear front seat retaining

bolts.

3. Unbolt any wiring, brake lines, and fuel lines that

are attached to the front or rear subframe near

to where the subframe connectors are to be

welded.

Note: Duct tape can be used to protect exposed

wiring or lines during welding.

4. Using the subframe connectors as a guide, mark

where there needs to be welding on the floor

pan and using the angle grinder / sander, clean

the area to be welded. The cleaner the area

where the weld is to be, the better and stronger

the weld will be (see Figure 1).

5. Weld all the floor pan pieces that are spot weld

at the factory and will be covered by the

subframe connectors after installation. This will

help the subframe connectors and keep the

factory spot welds from breaking where they

would be inaccessible after installation (see

Figure 2).

6. Using the supplied nut tab, bolt, and washer

install the Edelbrock Subframe Connectors on

the vehicle. Slip the nut tab through the hole by

the pinch weld near the rear trailing arm location;

align it so the hole in the subframe connector

can be bolted up. Before completely tightening

the bolt, it will be necessary to install the seat

reinforcement brackets. The seat reinforcement

bracket installs with the connector slipping

through the notch in the bracket and the longest

tab of the bracket to the front of the vehicle. Bolt

the seat reinforcement brackets using the

supplied 10mm bolts and washers, going up

from the bottom through the brackets into the

factory nut plates welded to the floor pan. (see

Figures 3 & 4). In the front subframe area, make

sure the connector is seated up against the floor

pan. The gaps between the sheet metal and the

subframe connector should be minimized for

good weld quality. Use C-clamps or locking

pliers to hold the front of the connector in place.

7. Begin welding by tack welding both the front

then the rear of the subframe connector to the

floor pan. Once it is securely tack welded in,

then start to do the final welding. Weld the seat

bracket to the subframe connectors securely. It

may be necessary to lift the connector bar to

meet and close any large gaps between the

connector and the seat reinforcement bracket.

8. Place the transmission cross member

reinforcement braces inside of the transmission

cross member mounting brackets, (see Figure

5) weld in place.

9. Paint the Edelbrock Subframe Connectors at

this time to prevent corrosion. Re-install any

wiring, brake lines, and or fuel lines and mount

them securely. Now is a good time to inspect

the condition of the suspension components,

check for worn, loose, or broken components

and replace accordingly. The Edelbrock

Subframe Connectors will do the most for a

vehicle with good suspension parts.

10. Re-install the interior pieces in the front foot

wells; install front seat mount hardware with the

supplied nyloc nuts and washers, onto the ends

of the bolts that are securing the seat

reinforcement brackets. Connect the battery.

Drive vehicle 20-30 miles and re-torque all the

mounting bolts.
