Default Identify these subframe connectors?

I was crawling around under an e-body and took a picture of these subframe connectors. Does anyone recognize the manufacturer, or are they fabricated?

I would say that those were custom fabricated. They look pretty good. It definately would have been nice to see how they did the rear of the connector.

Just one more pic to take to the body shop with me. When I have my body work done, I am going to have a pair of connectors fabricated at the same time.

Mopar Muscle did an E-article on subframe connectors called "traction action" Look 'em up online for some good pictures and a write up. They did it with like 11 bucks worth of square stock and a MIG welder.
