Tweaking Frame Possible??????

I'm gonna run this weekend for the first time with the mods below and some sticky's. Someone told me unless I got subframe connectors that I shouldn't run it cause I might tweak my frame. Is there a great chance of this????? Don't wanna do all this work and screw my frame up.

Doubt it..... I ran with the same combo you have cuttin' 1.7 60's and no worries. Subframes are nice and I have a set to be welded on, but I really dont believe you'll have much trouble. (Tell us all how the times go!!)

Bent and twist are extreme, tweek is just minor. Can't be regional, the dude from SC knew.

I seriously doubt that you will move anything if you use slicks.

A guy around here said I will buckle the frame if I use slicks. He thought his friend bent his Z28 because the door skin came unglued.
