There is 4 versions. The first an basic kit is for a fox only and starts at 400. It consist of hand picked 99 to 04 a arms, being checked for straightness, stitch welding the ori bushing shells in place,then inserted with pro thane poly bushings, and only moog ball joints will complete the arms. a modded steering rack will complete this stage one kit. one year warranty on all parts if you don,t crash the car lol.
The other versions get a lil more complicated and obviously will cost more, stage two starts at 1000, and can still retain the stock spring and come with special modded spindles, and heavily modded 99, to 04 arms with the above listed upgrades, the stage 3 kit you guys can call for added info if your interested and will require coil overs only. The 4 kit is around 1500 and needs allot of custom modding to the car, fender clearances, shock tower inner mods, mm cc plates, etc.
the biggest thing Im trying to get out to the public is this stage one set up. It is by far the best bang for your buck upgrade one can do before going tubular front and coil over. car handles amazing and still retains alot of the stock components, with no modding to the rest of the car, its a true bolt on kit that does amazing things. this stage one kit will let you drive in a circle in my drive way. stage one parts you can install your self, or have me do for additional cost. adds slight camber to your front stance. only thing this kit requires is something you should already have on your fox, adjustable cc plates so the alignment can be correct.
there is kits all the way to 2004 but get a bit more expensive because the arms really are already clearanced allot from the factory, and will have to be modded like the stage two kit to achieve any more angle,before you go to a custom tubed arm, those arms cost 500 and are more designed for drifting.

thank you alot! been three years working into this, I feel confident I got all the bugs worked outta this, an there isn't much more to learn from the steering angle side on all forms of driving, that's why im posting this now! I ori hated the steering on our foxs an how limited it is so i now have a affordable fix. below pic is the limit where im at now, and still finishing up on this month, but its def a taste tester of whats to come and prob get me on the map for this stuff as the most angle in the country that I know of at the moment. https://scontent-a-sjc.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/s720x720/10906528_981680595194008_1519555888814672159_n.jpg?oh=9555eedd7a216f0f1aea1de2a84026d7&oe=5542DC9C

with the stage 1 and the sn95 control arms on a fox how is tire clearance

i have a 17x8 ford rim and a 255/40/17

any pics on the angle of that?

a stock 95 arm come,s so close I dont like it. sum rub some dont its so close. thats why I use 99 to 04 arms. they are identical in the pick up joints from inner bushing to outer ball joints, just clearanced more for bigger wheels to not rub on the newer years from the factory. https://scontent-b-sjc.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash2/t31.0-8/s960x960/1266327_635626203135931_568639706_o.jpg
this is the stage one angle on a 17 by 8 ford rim, looks normal to cars now

the cop car in the pic has a stage one angle at that moment, the first green car has a stage 3 angle kit for a better comparison. https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/10409029_755324191203131_3234428306517452765_n.jpg?oh=26a70943edf3a55533ca6d8ffcd0f421&oe=55347B32&__gda__=142908225 0_a76762b726649aceb86ff91411b8175a

It cost alot , I looked into it. plus copying peoples stuff can be done so easily, where a round tube might be, all u gotta do is use a square one, now copyright no good. plus what im doing is just fabbing new stock parts up. nothing from scratch except my buddy that make the arms for the stage 3 an 4 kit. If you got a imagination your always gona invent something, by the time its being copied Im already onto the next thing. thanks for the good heads up everybody that actually mentioned that. that's good looking out an ill remember that if you ever need anything. Ive had the stage one and two kits for the last year already, beside my own car 3 years ago. I just hadn't explored all the ins and outs yet, but oh i have now lol. the research is already out there really, so anybody can read it up if they wanted. I just made it easy and already done for the folks that don't have patience and a welder with a couple bucks to spare. really i am just proud as hell if i can help get teh fox body or just mustang a competitive edge in this new drift racing stuff, another outlet for our cars, and young, or old crowd also to get off the street. there's a guy Dean that is 62 years old and he drifts a yellow 2000 gt, nice cool ole guy.
