Apologies for the confusion gents. When I think "4 post" I correlate it with "4 POINT" but actually being a 2 post. That's what I meant
I could have sworn to all things holy that Eric sais install THESE sfc's with the suspension UNloaded. It was explained that when your car is built on the assembly line, it's on a similar type lift... the tires being one of the last things installed? Someone correct me if I'm wrong here.
**EDIT**
I thought I was right.... 2 post (4 POINT) lift; Suspension unloaded.

I asked the same thing when i had eric weld these on my car. I was under the impression that suspension needed to be loaded before they were welded on. i forgot exactly what he told me to be homest but i felt more then comfortable with the info he told me and he welded them up on a 2 post. Also alot of other sfc attach to the rear lower control arm mount and i know for sure that when installing anything with a rubber type bushing that it does need to be loaded before it is tighted to spec based on it binding up. maybe he will chime back and give some info. btw these sfc's are bad to the bone in my book and have made a huge improvment in the car.

im any normal auto shop would have a mig and a 2 post. thats pretty basic operating tools for any shop. just a matter of trusting someone to do a decent job or something?

heres the only pics i have that kinda show what i was talking about. lots of great welding area like i was saying. second pic is of the inside passenger front and if you look closely you can see that not only the pad itself is welded on both sides but a good 10in or so is welded on the scf itself and also connecting to another trans tunnel brace aswell. hope this helps..
