Default Weld-In Subframe Connectors

Just wondering what the cost would be to have Subframe Connectors welded in?

Depends on what you have. A good muffler shop can do the shop or any welder willing to crawl under there. I paid $40 to have some wolfe SFC's welded on a while back on Dirty 30. (Mexican maffler chops sharge sheeper.)

probably no more than $80 if u take it to a muffler shop willing to do it. If you take it to a speed shop it might be more, gotta ask around.

I own/run a muffler shop. I would charge 40-80 bucks depending on how much time it took. Right now us muffler shops are really short on business and I would do it for less just to get some business....SO DO IT SOON why the economy still sux! Then bargain with the guy and compromise on the price, but I wouldn't do it for less than $40.

Do yourself a favor, and hit all the welds with whatever color you choose paint to keep as much future rust off of them, it is a small thing but it is worth it in the long run, if you plan on owning the car for a while.
