    Sky Render's Build Thread

    I cant tell but are there Heat Shields in the box also? Just curious if Ford made another change.

    Sky Render's Build Thread

    I chose the coilover with spring removed method when I did mine. I also purchased the Maximum Motorsport Bumpsteer Install setup which includes the Dial indicator, Wooden hinged board, and various other bits and pieces. As SoundguyDave mentioned, the suspension is then cycled thru its full...

    Sky Render's Build Thread

    Just a few other pieces of info about the 302S Arm setup which I thought were strong selling points should you consider it at some point in the future: 1. The Howe BJ is threaded into the OEM'ish FLCA via a sleeve which is then welded onto the Arm itself (nicely welded and very sturdy). This of...

    Sky Render's Build Thread

    Heres a few links.. There's others out there. While not exactly an epidemic there are enough discussions to give one pause. Yeah the Epas issue is a bitch, so in that case it does raise other concerns with getting too fancy if on a budget...

    Sky Render's Build Thread

    Just a thought for further consideration in terms of the Phase 2 options. Have you considered just going to the 302S FLCA w/Howe balls setup? I can tell you from experience that the replacememt FLCA from Ford with the "Improved" Heat Shield is pretty much garbage also. Barely better then the...

    How much is too much?

    One fairly easy way to test the theory would be to grease up the top of the rear bump stops with something like that silver disk brake quiet/Anti seize crap that seems to find its way all over the place just by opening the lid. Slop up the bump stops before your next session and then check for...

    BOSS 302S FLCA Bind

    While I dont fit your exact criteria for those you are seeking a response from I am running these FLCA units on my car. I chose to use a Prothane Poly bushing on my setup over the Derlin units found at the front most attachment point. In terms of any bind, I think its important to consider the...

    Suspension Advice needed, 2013 GT

    I'm not so sure automatically advising someone to go to a stiffer rear bar is the best advice. Some prefer the feel of the car with as little Rear bar as possible while using an adjustable Front Bar instead. I can say for certain in my own case that my car didn't feel right at all when using...

    How Low is Low- Extended Ball Joint/ Bump Steer Question

    I went thru the pain of installing the Boss 302S bump steer kit a few summers ago due in part to also installing the Boss 302S control arms with Howe balls. I'm not going to lie, it was a lot of work. I spent a month or so doing it on weekends and as motivation allowed using what some would...

    Another trip to COTA another broken part...

    Looks like this new offering from UMI may come in handy here if you haven't seen it: http://www.s197forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=130416 Were you using the OEM braket for the FSB or something else? I guess depending on the carnage under there the repair may involve a welder and new...

    jake_zx2 PURSUIT OF A 8 MINUTE NURBURGRING LAP

    I'm also a fan of doing all the mods at once. But with that said, going this route isn't so easy with a limited budget to start with. The chances are pretty high that you will be kicking yourself later for purchases you make now which were determined by your current budget. Ask me how I know...
