Long story short, purchased a cobra through the forum here. Theres nothing on the Carfax and theres a clear/clean title. I ended up taking the front bumper off and noticed that the foam backing was "Taped" and some of the hardware is incorrect. Also, there appears to be a new radiator support/beam. Went to the local Ford dealership and purchased all the correct rivits/hardward. Safe to say this terminator has had front end work.
I just lowered the car and noticed that the driver side wheel sticks out about a 1/2 inch and the passenger wheel sits in 1/2 inch. Basically, the two front wheels are off set to one side. Looking underneath, there are subframe connectors installed and nothing appears to be bent/welded etc. Looking at the K-member, on the one side it appears that the bolts don't align up right and that if aligned, it would push both wheels in the direction needed to possible fix the issue. There are long tube headers installed so my belief is that the K-member was dropped and not installed properly.
Question is could a K-member through off both front wheels 1/2 inch? I'm freaking out that this issue may not be fixable for some reason. As of now, I would going to loosen the K-member and try to pry it over, if that even is possible. Also, does anyone have the TQ. settings for the eight bolts underneath?
Any insight or knowledge would be appreciated while I try to fix this one issue .......
