Making my list for 2005 mods......wanting to spend about $1000 maybe more if the job situation works out right. So far the list is:

-Steeda Front Sway bar
-Maximum Motorsports Lower Control arms
-MM K-member brace
-Kenny Brown Extreme Sub System Kit(put on at Bumbera's)
-Kenny Brown Rear Shock Tower Brace

Maybe I can get an IRS put in.....

I like the Global West SFC's that Jimmy got ALOT beefier than the KB stuff and also includes the full SFC's, the Jacking rails, and tie in bars, but its some $$$.

(wait, you don't have SFC's )

Add a rear shock tower brace from KB, this is an good thing to have if you do an IRS and/or go coil-overs.

I do...but i'd like to get them redone the way Bumbera's do it. Who knows....we'll see how much it all costs.

I knew I forgot something.....thanks Stan. Have to find a IRS donor, then find out how much to swap them out.

If you plan on a cage anytime then you will not need the rear brace

KB Rear Brace

I installed the K/B rear strut tower brace on my 03 cobra.
Not hard, but takes two people, my 10 year old daughter helped me! But a pair of vice grips and a little of enginuity would help. Me and my daughter had a blast installing it. She still brags about it!
I have a front tower brace I had to remove because I installed a BK intake and it interfiers with the tower brace. I need to buy the K/B so if anyone wants it, you can have it. Fits 03 cobra with stock intake.
The rest Don't know about now, but good luck!

Mike,

I'm finally putting my car in the shop to get the rearend done this month or next and if all doesn't go well, I may be interested in doing an IRS swap with you if you want. I'll keep you posted.
