Someone locally is parting out an 03 cobra so I can get a few things really cheap. Now will front and/or rear sway bars help at all? Will the 03 mirrors fit on my car? He only has the drivers side front lower control arm, know where i can get the passenger side? Anything else I should be looking for? Thanks

All of the suspension stuff should be a help to our cars, but probably not as dramatic as going with an aftermarket piece over another stock item. Definitely grab the brakes, even if you're not using them on your own car if the price is right. You can sell them for quite a bit. I'm not certain, but I believe the Trac-Loc in the 03-04 Cobras are a 31 spline unit, so that would be a good pick-up, too. I've been wondering about the mirrors myself though. I like the foldable mirrors that came painted from the factory. I'd try to pick up the interior if it's within your price range, too.

Damn! I would grab the IRS rear-end. All of it. It's a bolt-in for our cars. (Somewhat.) I would love to have IRS for my car.

yeah he didnt list most of that stuff, but I'm probably gonna go later and check out what all he has. Said he has the rear seats but they arent in very good condition for $10 so I'm gonna get those too, we'll see. I think he wants $100 for the spindles and hubs.

dosent say, he really only listed about 10 or 15 things he actually has, I'll find out more when I go check it out I'm sure. Only has 2 good 10th anniversary wheels $100 each, struts I think were $300???

Click to expand...

if that's for struts and shocks, it's a good price (depending on mileage) as they are bilsteins, and are top quality.

Hmm... how does he have upper and lower control arms in the front? Unless it's a misprint, he would have had to convert it to SLA suspension.
