Default Quick SFC question

Had my BMR Sub Frame Connectors installed last week and boy those things are sweet...big difference in ride. I got the weld on boxed ones, but the guy that put them on only welded up the fronts, and ended up bolting on the back ends, cause he said that's how it's supposed to be. Correct or incorrect??

Instructions say weld up both ends, that's how I did mine. Don't worry though, you can go back and weld up the other ends.

Yeah, I was a bit confused as to why he did this as well. One end welded and the other end bolted. Is this affecting the performance of the SFCs at all in the near future. In other words, do I need to get that back end welded soon, or can it wait a while. I know that the problem with bolt ons is that the bolt flexes and makes the opening wider therefore rendering the SFCs useless. Is this something that happens quick, or over a long period of time??
