Just to clarify: So is the idea to have all four wheels hanging freely off the ground when the subframe connectors are welded on or not?

no. defnitely not. all of the vehicle's weight should be sitting on the wheels, just as it normally is.
i have emailed the installation instructions to those who have already received theirs. if anyone would like a copy of these now, email me at svt4stv@gmail.com
--do not pm for these as they are a Word attachment
so....who will be the FIRST to get them installed???

Im trying! I bought a bunch of industrial rustoleum (supposedly it is more resistant to chipping) to get them coated, but the weather here hasnt been cooperating. Its been too cold to paint. . .

haha yea, do you think Hi-temp paint will protect it from rust?
Also, ive been told that the welding can melt the carput from the heat..

dont know, but it isnt necessary. they wont be subject to heat, unless you plan on doing railslides around town.

lol. there's enough between the underside of the car and the carpet that it shouldnt be a concern. plus, youre talking about only welding for a few seconds. although my carpet looks like rhino-poo, it wasnt affected by the install.
but if youre really concerned......you could always remove the carpet just to be safe
