trbkrb / PooPdawg:
Thanks. I will keep that in mind for the future. I'll have to go out and measure mine now. I do want the car to sit a tad lower, but I think I'll stick with the poly isolators for a while longer just to see what happens since it was a b**** to get the springs in and I don't want to do that again any time soon! I'm crossing my fingers but feeling doubtful and lazy for the time being.

1slowfiveoh:
I didn't order a bumpsteer kit since I don't drive the car that often. Right now it has crazy bumpsteer but it is still without proper alignment, hopefully I'll get that done next week. FWIW there seems to be a ton of thread left for adjusting the toe-in and I figure if bumpsteer is still a problem after the alignment, I can order a kit and install it later!

RedlineRR:
I used this tech article as my model. He has a parts and price list: http://www.mustangmotorsport.com/sn95conversion.html Be warned though that he seemed to get excellent deals on everything he bought. Try here: http://mjbobbitt.home.comcast.net/mustang/sn95brakes.html as well for a thorough parts list. As far as cost, it really all depends how much performance you want, whether you want new or used and how patient you are. I tend to be impatient and just buy what I want right now instead of waiting for a good deal. I estimate I spent... *does some thinking* With wheels ($1000) I figure I spent about $2100 CAD just for the 5-lug essentials. So add on a bunch more for suspension and gears.
