Thanks guys, I definitely plan to do the FTBR kit and replace all the bushings. I will definitely need those fitting sizes. I'm running 10.5 wide Saleens in the rear right now and would like to retain the same style wheel, but will require a different offset. So I'll drop down to a 9" wide wheel.
@bird_dog0347 did you only drill up through the bottom and not the sides?
I will have to reroute my entire fuel system as my A1000 is mounted on the fuel tank cover right by the rear end. Don't think it will be enough room with the irs installed.

I have not yet found a saleen wheel in that size, and the 9" one usually has a max of like 30ish offset which isn't enough. I've been wanting to put the SVE drift wheels on mine, but they have the same issue. I'm going to see if I can get the 18x10 size and then have them narrowed 1" and correct the bs/offset all at the same time. If that doesn't work I do like
@RacEoHolic330 and get some custom wheels.
This is the list that
@RacEoHolic330 gave me back in 2012 for the fittings and it worked out great for me but I also didn't completely re-route my brake hard lines like he did so there's a little difference for us.
"Check out my build thread. I posted a few more pictures there. The connections are not done yet though. I forgot to get adapter fittings. Here are all the parts you'll need to make it work:
WH 1442 - M10x1.0 to 3/8-24 adapters (to connect hard lines to soft lines - two needed)
WH 702X3 - Three way 3/8-24 Tee fitting
BK 8131204 - 20" pre-fabbed 3/16" hard line with 3/8-24 fittings
BK 8131205 - 30" pre-fabbed 3/16" hard line with 3/8-24 fittings
The part numbers are from Napa. The adapters might be special order. My local Napa has to order them for me."
As for mounting the brackets I drilled the 3 holes per side that are necessary but I didn't weld in the supports like Scott did, I just opened the top (trunk floor) with the hole saw so I could get the washer and nut down in there and then tighten from the outside without crushing the rail as it only hold it to the one side of the rail so it can't crush it.
If you currently have your pump between the tank and the SRA, you'll VERY likely have to move it. And whatever you do, install the FTBR before putting in the IRS. Or at least mount up the subframe while it's empty before you reassemble it as it's MUCH easier that way.
