There has been a few revisions of it over the years. I had one of the first in 2001. On mine the inner socket rubbed the control arm enough that it wore a hole in the boot.





It pushed the tires out far enough that when I was backing it out of the garage after getting it aligned the first time, the tire tread caught the fender lip and peeled it out.


Here is how low it sat for the few months I had it in my car.

I'm thinking: HACK car builder WTF?? If the rest of that car is like the front suspension, you have more issues than what you want to blame MF for.

You got the car home without front wheels???

Send the pics to MF and get their input. Should be interesting.

I concur, from the pic's looks like you could change the control arms but would ring MF for there input.

The rest of the car was like that! I have redone almost everything on it.
The front suspension was the only part i didnt expect would need work.
No it didnt come without wheels! Must have been different backspacing.
I have emailed them the pics but they havnt answered!

He is supposed to be ready at the first of the year, to make some more front ends. I hope he does as it is a battle tested and quality piece. I will let you guys know.
