SUBFRAME CONNECTORS

The Third Generation F-body needs all the help it can get with chassis reinforcement. Commonly known as one of the most flexible and "loosest" chassis ever produced we made sure that our subframe connectors were up to the task. As with most of our subframe connectors, we reinforce the rear control arm mounts with HD 3/16" plate and use rectangular tubing to join three areas: the rocker pinch welds, rear control arm boxes and front subframes. This ties in the entire floorpan of the car by joining key structural components, minimizing chassis flex and improving handling.

BMR offers two versions for different exhaust combinations. Part Number SFC008 is designed for cars with full length headers and exhaust systems that run inside the frame rails. Part Number SFC009 is designed for cars equipped with the OE manifolds or shorty headers with OE exhaust or OE type exhaust that runs on the passenger side, outboard the subframe.

SFC008 Boxed Subframe Connectors for inside framerail exhaust $199.95 pr.
SFC009 Boxed Subframe Connectors for outside framerail exhaust $199.95 pr.
 

 

BMR Tubular K-members reduce weight while providing more room for large tube headers and turbo systems. The factory K-member weighs 54.5 lbs. with motor mounts. Our tubular version with integrated motor mounts only weighs 24 lbs., a weight savings of 30.5 lbs! Combine this with a set of our Tubular A-arms and save up to 50 lbs. off the front end! (NOTE: Manual rack and pinion conversion loses an additional 28-36 lbs.)

Made from .120" wall 1.5" DOM tubing and laser cut, CNC formed 3/16" mounting plates. NOTE: Not for use with OE A-arms. Available in Black Hammertone or red powdercoat. More pictures here - Front view Top view

TRANSMISSION CONVERSION CROSS-MEMBERS

BMR Transmission Conversion Crossmembers allow you to swap your choice of transmissions into your 82-92 F-Body. Bolts to OE frame points using existing mounting holes. NOTE: This crossmember only mounts the transmission and eliminates the factory torque arm mount. This requires a short torque arm conversion such as the BMR Trak Pak or Xtreme Duty Torque Arm. If a full length torque arm is desired, use the BMR Torque Arm Relocation Crossmembers below.
TCC022 1984-1992 F-Body with T5 manual transmission $179.95
TCC023 1984-1992 F-Body with M6 manual transmission $179.95

TCC027 1984-1992 F-Body with 4L80 automatic transmission $179.95

 

 

TORQUE ARM RELOCATION CROSS-MEMBERS

The OE torque arm mounts to the tailshaft housing of the transmission. For factory horsepower levels and average street driving this works fine, but drag racing combined with more power equals broken tailshaft housings. BMR Torque Arm Relocation Crossmembers allow you to take the torque arm mount off the transmission and onto the crossmember, eliminating the chance of breakage and firming up the mounting point. Additionally, these crossmembers allow the user to fine tune the launch characteristics of the car by offering multiple mounting points for "instant center" height adjustments. Bolts to OE frame points using existing mounting holes. NOTE: Works with BMR Full Length Torque Arms only.
TCC015 1984-1992 F-Body with T5 manual transmission $254.95
TCC016 1984-1992 F-Body with M6 manual transmission $254.95
