Personally, I chose the kit from these guys: http://www.wolferacecraft.com/SearchResult.aspx?CategoryID=173 I used all UPR rear suspension components to finish out their tub and crossmember kit.
I also know a few guys that have used this kit: http://www.teamzmotorsports.net/product_p/tzm-mtk-fox.htm and have been happy with the end result as well.

The car was built to use up to a 315/60/15 tire (30") on a 12" wide wheel. The car currently has 275/60/15 radials stretched on a double bead locked 12" wheel

As to not derail your thread with my whole story, you can see all 61 pages of the build from the crash a few years ago until now here: http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-for...ehow-still-street-legal-car-wait-what.870485/

I guess we’ll all have to sit around the table holding hands with a woman that can talk to the dead.
