[QUOTE="Marc Gordon, post: 14387761, member: 165635"] I wanted to dig this thread up, and share my experience last night installing ford racing relo brackets, lca's, and bmr springs for just the rear... From all reading, I had done, although I didn't know there would be anissue, i went with ford racing thinking it would just fit. Anyway,The GT500 has a thicker sway bar, but the relo/lca brackets both state to be compatible with GT 500, anywhere you read on sites selling these,, Anyhow it was close enough to be touching, my mechanic wasn't sure what to do, as we had ALREADY welded these on!! WTF lol. Was recommended to take sway off, or go to BMR's, however, after the welding it was just a huge PITA. Not smart on my part to ask to test fit first with bolts... I thought ford racing parts would just fit nice and be like stock. We ended up deciding to grind down the stock ford racing brackets just a bit. Really disappointing that the info on sites sells these under GT500 aren't documenting or explaining fitment exceptions, and I was misled to think ford racing by default would be the best bracket since it's standard equipment on a boss mustang. I'll post some pics later, but yea, we were able to take just a little off each side, hardly noticeable, no rubbing whatsoever. Going forward I won't ever be going with ford racing products. My UCA, and panhard bar are both BMR. [/QUOTE]
