Ok guys got a problem, i have had a dumbass tell me that with a qa1 kmember and a-arms could work with my saleen springs but when i took it all apart the springs wont work. so i put the kmember on and made the stock control arms work but when i put the car down it was MESSED UP BAD!! took it to firestone to have alinment and they said i needed the qa1 struts ($229/ea.), coil over kit($160), caster-camber kit($160), bumpsteer kit($150), and a bunch of bushings. so what im asking is what is my best and cheapest way out of this sticky situation???? thankx

you coud put your old stuff back on...... Or buy the stuff you need and make it right. If you cobble parts together you most likely will be frusterated with the outcome. There is cheaper versions of coil overs and the other parts listed. Its still going to cost you.

Who-ever told you, that you have to have that stuff to fix it, is trying to rip you a new *******.

All you need is a set of C/C plates. But I would suggest getting QA1's A-arms and a coil over setup eventually (so i'd get 4 bolt C/C plates now in prep for that).

QA1's A arms are shorter from the Bushing end to the center of the Balljoint compared to stock, so when you re-use the stock A-arms is pushes the ball joint out about 1/2-3/4" causing your Camber to go all crazy along w/ your toe

Wait a second? Do you even have springs in the car right now?

I am not going to say anything about using crappy parts, not knowing what you are doing, and f'king up your Mustang...

Post some pics to help us understand what is going on.
