You just sanded and painted the welds correct? I am touching up my welds this weekend.

I installed UMI 2 point bolt on subframe connectors .They help a lot.But their are a lot more things that you have to do to the suspension to make it a stable platform and handle better. Koni SA's ,Strano hollow sway bars,LCA'S and PHR. I did this stuff one at a time so I could tell the difference.My t/a handles and rides like a different car.It's glued to the ground.Go the whole distance you won't believe the difference IMO.

Yes, the welds were painted right after they were installed.

Much thanks and BIG thumbs up to UMI for the SFC's. Just got them on yesterday and I love em'! Handles awesome and they took away some rattles that were really pissing me off too!
