sfc? Cant think what that stands for. The only problem i see with the Comp. Eng. ones is that from what I see they would be more narrow than the stock ones meaning I would have to modify my rear end or somehow figure up a bracket to mount the leaf springs.

SubFrameConnector. Your right they move the rails in. Spring perches come in and Comp says the gas tank needs to be narrowed too, I have a fuel cell so that didn't bother me. I bought the connectors because I wanted weld in ones. This was almost ten years ago, not much out there back then. Then after reading up om it. Comp told me I had to use the rails too. I was pissed. Still have them. I left them in the back of my truck and it rained destroying the box and putting some light surface rust on them, Summit wouldn't take them back.
