BMR Suspension SFC012 - Manual

TUBULAR SUBFRAME CONNECTORS – 2005 MUSTANG
Part # SFC012
NOTE: Although this installation can be performed with a hydraulic jack and stands, a drive-on 4-post service lift is
recommended.
1. Lift vehicle and support. If you are not using a drive-on lift, the vehicle
must be supported with the suspension loaded. This can be accomplished
by driving the front wheels onto ramps and then placing the rear axle on
jack stands.
2. Using a 10mm socket, remove both rear parking brake cable brackets as
shown in Image 1.
3. Using the same socket, remove the plastic fuel line cover on the driver’s
side.
4. Using a 13mm socket, remove both deflectors located in Image 2.
5. Starting with the passenger’s side, lift the sub frame connector into place
and support. The bend end of the sub frame connector goes forward and the rear saddle attaches to the front of the control
arm mount.
6. Using a marker, trace all weld surfaces then remove sub
frame connector.
7. Sand or grind all weld areas at the trace points. Also
remove the powdercoat at all weld points.
8. Reposition the sub frame connector into place. Verify that
all mounting surfaces of the sub frame connector are flush
with the sub frame and support it in place. Tack weld all
mounting points before any full weld beads are performed.
Once all mounting points have been tack welded into place,
remove the supports and weld every connection possible.
9. Before welding on the passenger side, insulate the plastic
fuel lines near the front of the sub frame connector with a
damp rag or section of leather welding cloth. Repeat steps
5-8 on the drivers side.
10. Prep and paint all welded surfaces with a rust preventative paint.
11. It is necessary to section the plastic fuel line cover in order to reinstall it. This can be done with a jigsaw, band saw, or with
tin snips. Once modified, reinstall the cover.
12. Install the rear parking brake cable brackets over the studs located on the rear of the sub frame connectors and tighten.
13. Lower the vehicle.
