Sounds like a cool project! You have to upload pictures to a hosting site like photobucket. Then copy and paste the image location address to your post here using
tags. If you have them loaded to facebook, you can also use that as a hosting site and just copy the image address between the image tags

Sounds like a good project, Why not swap a Maximum motorsports k member in there with the mm coil overs instead of the UPR "craftsmanship" k member

I started the same project also. Bought an 01 Cobra a couple weeks ago. I bought a wreck '11 and we'll see where it goes from there.

haha "craftsmans" foreal, yea I would have deefinetly went with the MM k member looking back on it but originally I didn't plan on doing the coil overs and aarms because UPR said I would be able to retain my stock components and just swap in their k member (I just wanted to have the extra clearance, this k member was specifically for the coyote swap also). but once I installed it the brackets to mount the a arms where over a quarter inch off so I then had to go with their Aarms and just decided to go all out with the coilovers anyway.

not sure yet im gonna drop the engine in within next few days and ill make something up but I would like to keep it bolted solid on the engine so it still shakes around when you give it throttle, rather than just having it attached directly to the hood there is a couple studs coming off the intake manifold that look promising for a bracket to be made onto them
