Critter, CT_Solstice already called "Dibbs" on the Rear GXP sway bar. You can arm wrestle or Jello wrestle him or whatever you have to do to try and get it from him fair and square.

I will bring along my soldering station and offer up "Free Key Fob" fixes for anyone that needs it. Susan and ChuckDoc are first in line.

Steve - coilovers will typically give you a stiffer, but more stable/flat ride. My cousins drift car is set as hard as anything. It's like sitting on cinder blocks over bumps, but that thing corners like mad. Exit ramps at 75 without tire squeal or body roll!

That said, I am still looking at coilover options. I may have a lead on STD suspension parts and am going to check that tout as well. Top and bottom pillow mounts, ride height markings as well as other good stuff:

I spoke with Dave and he said that if I keep it at the same ride height, I didn't need one.

You don't NEED it, but a performance alignment can give you more desirable handling.

Morf, I already have the FE3 rear bar, I want the front one

And it's just good tuning to know what your parameters are after a mod has been installed. Knowing a good baseline to measure from.

Only works for Firestone tires, Def!

And even then it only works on Ford Exploders.

I will bring a homemade raspberry coffee cake, and I'll go buy a sandwhich platter if that is still needed too. Joe, let me know.

Sly Bob · « **Reply #539 on:** April 20, 2010, 04:17:10 PM »

Bought 25 pounds of Canadian bacon today to bring down. Think that's enough?

Hope there's room in the car!

I have ave not seen anything posted lately, guess everyone is packing their bags...

Sly Bob · « **Reply #549 on:** April 22, 2010, 02:59:22 PM »

I have. Been scraping together a bunch of rolls of electrical tape, about 20 feet of heat shrinkable tubing and some zip ties. I have way more than I'll need but I'm sure that won't be a problem.

Have to get a couple soft sided coolers for the "Canadian bacon" next week to bring that down.
