Well Kris aka backinblack got his coupe to the shop tonight and we started to tear the suspension down. We got the rear axles out and the front hubs off. We going to put it back together in the next day or say and slap the saleen's on!!! Here are some pics of what we done tonight

No worries on that one either... If you dont like the 4.10's and want a 3.73 instead, let me know and we'll swap. I need more gear in the Coupe !!! :yes1::yes1::yes1:

I have a brand new set of 3.73's I was going to put in. But everyone has sort of changed my mind, and I most likely will be putting 4.10's in.

you can just use rotors from a lincoln and it will be the right bolt pattern. but then you tun into a bunch of problems with the hub making contact with the wheel center and center cap.
