If your talking about a 5 lug conversion, you need spindles, new ball joints for a sn95, calipers pads rotors both lines and for 6 dollars latemodelresto sells the conversion fitting. It's a weather head but I forgot the part number. You only need one fitting for the passenger side line. As for a k member, I'm strictly a maximum motorsports customer. I have their control arms, some brake system parts, panhard bar etc. Talk to Jon Duncan of Vallejo, he owns Duncan motors and is a sales rep and licensed dealer for them. They may be over kill for you but nobody complains about the quality of their stuff.

Team z has awesome stuff and yes they are on the fastest cars out there, but he said aggressive road driving like winding roads etc. that's why I suggested MM. Shit even for straight line stuff I would still run their rear suspension and what not. Anyways I said my piece

They can call it whatever they want. But I would not suggest that k-member or others of similar construction for a track, autocross or canyon carver. The mounting tabs for the lower control arms are not supported enough for me. The g-forces on a track car are enormous under braking. Enough to spin the tires on the wheels. Enough to bend the mounting ears that bolt to the spindles on struts.

For me it is MM, stock or maybe granitelli ( Chinese copy of the MM )

You can use Foxbody or sn95 control arms but with sn95 control arms will stick out on a Foxbody

the factory lca bushings and balljoints suck though, especially with how old they are today.

I think the fox geometry arm with 94/95 spindles is a fine setup that doesn't require fender mods.

Team z, best components for drag strip hands down.

With that said, on a road course or at autocross, there is NOTHING team z has that would be competitive with a Maximum Motorsport suspended car, period. MM parts are multi use but in all honesty is a company dedicated to best hadling.

Team z just doesn't have the expierence and R&D in the road racing world to compare
