Subframe Connectors

Was wondering if anyone has built or modified sub frame connectors for a Eagle wagon? Have big plans and want a sturdy car. Not using original drive train.

I would call the people at https://www.freakride.com/ and talk to them. If anyone makes something that MIGHT work it would be them.
That is the place I plan to order new strut rods from. Essentially the same part at the Hornet, but they haven’t tested and that was the reason it wasn’t advertised. Same might apply for the subframe connectors. I think they might have them listed as stiffeners but I don’t recall.

I bought their Spirit subframe connectors for my SX4. They are a very simple design and do not fit an Eagle without modification. Anyone who has the skills to modify and install the connectors in an Eagle could easily fabricate their own
