So, I wanted to do 4.10's in the Cobra and while I was at it figured i would do a bunch of stuff. I just have the pics of the car on the ground as my floor jack crapped out so still have a little touch ups to do. But I did just about the complete FTBR kit, 4.10's, H&R Race Springs, Tokico D-Specs, MM CC Plates and J&M Brake Lines oh and yeah the AMR Charcoal rims with NT555's and the Termi chin spoiler.

So far things ride very nice and have no wheel hop or shimmy when going over bumps. Very glad I went with the FTBR kit!

Thanks guys, I'm glad i went with these rims. It feels good to be done doing a bunch of mods. I need to get a few things cleaned up though, like the chin spoiler needs some adjustment.

Also I think the rear sway bar needs to be adjusted, I have the FTBR adjustable end links, and it sounds like they are tapping something or it might be the cross axis joint, which was the only part of the kit I didn't do at the time. The FTBR kit is great though I recommend it to anyone.

Clean looking car man. I'll be doing the ftbr kit this winter.

What's next? Where in PA are you?

Thanks, I'm in SE PA, near the West Chester area, so West Grove isn't too far. Let me know when your doing the FTBR kit if you have any questions. I would recommend getting the cross axis joints if your doing the full kit as I have to get back into mine to replace them soon.

As for whats next, unfortunately looks like a rebuild on the 3650. Then probably some nitrous to hold me over till I do something like a 5.4L swap to it.

Car looks good. I like the drifts on a black car. You need to crank the steering wheel to the right and retake that last photo!

Thanks! And yeah I was rushing to take the pics and didn't think about the wheel clocking.

The D-specs ride great, I have them at the stiffest settings and its not overly stiff. I don't see me setting them to the soft setting unless I was taking it on a long cruise. But now that I'm thinking about it might change it to softer next time I take it out just to see how it rides.

Thanks again guys! And yes they are 18's. I've got 18x9's with 275/40-18's on the back and 18x8's with 265-35-18's up front. Think I will go with a wider tire out back next time around.

I vote tinted side markers and tails next. I got some left over tint for your side markers if you want it.

Stupid question, but is the hood decal flat black? Looks like it from the pics, just wanted to be sure.

Looking at maybe doing something like on my '99 Cobra hood.

Entire car looks sick - did you do the gear install yourself?
