Not exactly the diamond design that I was expecting to see. Why can't someone just copy the KBDDs.
What are they made from? Looks like a good paint job to protect them is in order

Hey Ragtop,
Sorry about that I don't think that he has any other form of online advertising. So no other way to show them prior to my set arriving.
I was looking for a DD design as well, but yep no one makes one for the Verts. Why cause we have one little extra stamped brace.
So when I found these I was stoked. Now I need another set one for my other vert (the LT is faster).
I plan to paint them this weekend. The guy who makes them is not in it to make a business (i.e Living) out of it. When I spoke to him it was more like they are limited production and he takes pride in producing them.
Also they are impossible to find despite the keywords they don't come up most of the time. Strange.
Won't do it again.

We have installed these BMR subframe connectors on many convertible F body cars. They fit good and are plenty strong enough. I prefer these coonectors over diamond style as it makes it easier to install a good torque arm, such as the BMR Trac Pak.

The cross brace on this torque arm easily welds into the subframe connectors.
Diamond style subframe connectors have also posed problems for us with some exhaust systems. Dual exhaust usually poses a problem with the diamond type. Bob

Whoo, painted them and bolted them in yesterday and they fit perfect and tuck up nicely. Lucky I got an LS car though because originally I wanted to put them on the 97 and noticed that the fuel and brake line might be in the way at the front drivers side.
Will have them welded in soon. Will try to get some pics when the exaust goes in and it is on the rack.

You know, Before I left for the gulf UMI was talking about these SFCs, 10 months later they are still not here, Damn I was hoping they would be out by the time I got back. Ill just be buying BMR or someother type that I dont really want because UMI doesnt want to commit to the 3pioint type that im looking for.

Kenny Brown got really sick and lots of crap went down at the shop and his business got out of control. But that is all speculation.
From his website around this same time LAST YEAR:

I say speculation since we have not heard anything from him for a full year.

Might want to update your price on the BMR's...
http://www.bmrfabrication.com/F-bodyChassis.htm
Why would anyone buy yours for $200 and get them direct from BMR for $184.95 ???
Not just in red but also in their cool new black hammertone color.
