    Anymore info on these IDF Subframes?

    would like more info / photos.

    This extra 1 inch of clearence you speak of. I assume thats without motor mount spacers? So just the subframe alone will give you the ability to lay frame rail?

    Very Interested

    Did anyone else have to clean out a load of weld splatter from the thread holes? These things took so long to come, I figured they'd be perfect on arrival. Now I've got to go grab a tap to clean out all the **** in the threads. Awesome work.

    Mine had a little bit of splatter in them, but it was nothing a small wire brush and some compressed air couldn't fix.

    Apparently it's not spatter but beads from bead blasting. Still, a bit frustrating. Hopefully yours are ok.
