BMR Suspension SFC015 - Manual

SUBFRAME CONNECTORS
SFC015 – 2010-Present Chevrolet Camaro
Please read the following important information before proceeding with this installation.
• It is recommended to perform this installation on a 4 post service lift with the suspension loaded. It is
possible to use drive-on ramps as long as the full weight of the vehicle is resting on the wheels/tires and
the suspension is fully loaded. Two post lifts or floor jacks are not recommended for two reasons: they
do not load the suspension and they support the vehicle in the same area that the subframe connectors
attach, preventing access to the installation area.
Required Tools:
• 3/8” ratchet
• 15mm socket
• 3/8” Allen wrench or Allen socket
Installation Procedure:
1. Lift vehicle.
2. Using a 15mm socket, remove the four bolts that
secure the OE driveshaft tunnel brace and remove the
brace.
3. Locate the 2 sets of frame inserts provided with your
BMR Subframe Connectors. The smaller of the two
fits the rear frame rails and the larger fits the front
rails. As shown in Image 2 to the right, slide the
smaller insert up through the oblong frame hole and
into the frame rail. It should fall rearward, then can be
positioned over the existing holes as in Image 3.
4. Slide the larger front frame inserts into the front rails
and position them over the existing frame holes as in
Image 4 on the next page. There are two sets of front
frame inserts. Use the flat insert for 2012 and newer
models and the bent insert for 2010-2011 models.
5. Choose a side and hold a subframe connector up into
place as shown in the last image on the following
page. Insert (2) of the supplied ½” Allen bolts and
washers into the rear-most bolt holes and (1) into the
most forward bolt-hole. Thread the 10mm bolts into
the remaining holes. Do not tighten any of the bolts
until all six bolts are partially threaded in. NOTE: a
screwdriver or tapered alignment dowel may be used
to line up the bolt holes.
6. Once all bolts are inserted, tighten the ½” Allen bolts
to 45 ft/lbs.
7. Remove the (2) 10mm tunnel brace bolts that were
installed in the previous step.
8. Repeat steps 5-6 for the other subframe connector.
