More parts to install. Ford Racing Knuckle to toe-link bushings. Ordered these from CJponyparts.com

Anyone know if these can be installed in my garage?

Got a press? I have heard a common rental bearing press kit will not be easy with getting the stock ones out.

Dang, builds coming along great! If you ever consider selling those HRE's, let a local pal know.

Stainless Power Headers are on the car. Before I tightened everything up.

Stainless Power Catted Headers to FR Touring system.

Just got my GT350 Steering Wheel and 40 mins later it was installed.
I got tired of waiting for someone to get them instock... bought one off eBay.

That was a quick and extremely satisfying mod. The materials and stitching of the new wheel feels MUCH higher quality. From the beginning I disliked the feel of the stock wheel and was considering having it recovered. Thanks Ford for making the GT350 wheel nicer and a direct replacement. Used this diy

Looking good, man.

Random question, are the cats on your headers removable?

Yes they are... and I think you can order the non-cat parts from Stainlessworks and switch them.

HRE RIMS INSTALLED!!!!

Just had the car out for a 15 min drive. It's 46 degrees out here in Detroit today.
I can't even believe how much better the road manners are with this setup over the stock 19" PP P-Zeros. I always felt the car had nervous steering over ever tiny road defect. These 555 gen 2's are Civil! Even though I went from 40series to 30 series the car has a NICER RIDE. I'm very very happy.

HRE FF15 Tarmac Wheels and Nitto 555 Gen 2 tires
20x10 front with 285/30r20
20x11 rear with 305/30r20

Oh, and then there is how they look:

Rear Brakes look tiny.

Love the FF15's, looks awesome!

Enjoyed reading about your build, sub'd for updates!

Damn that looks great, going to make me jealous when I eventually see you on the road!

Got some parts on the car yesterday.

- BMR Rear Sway Bar
- BMR End Links
- Steeda Upper Camber Link

Hardest install was the Upper camber link's inboard bolt. There are are a pair of lockouts that must be in perfect position as you tighten the nut&bolt but they want to move out of that position with the slightest vibration. I found it helped to hold them in position with a little grease.

Front bar in now installed too.

My baseline BMR swaybar settings: Rear middle, Front outside

Front bar install notes: It was not nearly as hard as I feared. Takeout the air box and have a really long extension and it's cake. I did have to buy one tool... a 10mm hex bit that has the ball at the end. Without this you can't install the one bolt that is directly under the Alternator. With these BMR bars you'll need a grease gun. The bars don't come with any grease for the bushings but the mounts have integrated grease fittings. This is great because it makes lubing them every so often really easy. I used red Mobil 1 premium synthetic grease.

About 24" of total length helps. Sway bars are a pretty easy install. Just a few hours.
