Hotchkis 67-69 Camaro/Firebird Convertible Subframe Connectors

With this kit, you get a pair of Hotchkis Performance subframe connectors, designed specifically for 1967-1969 Camaro and Firebird convertibles. They also fit a range of other F-body platform vehicles like the Chevrolet Nova and Pontiac Ventura. These connectors are built to significantly stiffen your car's chassis, which is especially important for convertibles that lack a fixed roof structure for rigidity. By reducing chassis flex, you'll notice an improved feel in how the car handles and a reduction in annoying body rattles.

Hotchkis constructs these subframe connectors from strong 1.5 inch by 2.5 inch rectangular steel tubing with a substantial 120 wall thickness. The tubing is MIG welded for solid joints and then finished with a gloss black powder coat to resist corrosion. The kit includes urethane front body mounts, and the rear mount is designed as a weld-in piece. The front mount offers flexibility, allowing for either a bolt-in installation or the option to weld it for even more security. A notable benefit is that the installation does not require any cutting or modification to your car's floorboards, making it a more straightforward process for your restoration project.

Adding these subframe connectors is a popular finishing touch for any convertible restoration. They tie the front and rear subframes together, creating a more unified and solid structure. This not only improves the driving experience by making the chassis feel more planted but also helps to eliminate squeaks and rattles that can develop over time, especially in older convertibles.
