You have to notch the crossmember, you cannot take it out completely, or the front end will flop around. There has to be something tying both sides together besides the engine if you run the stock front subframe and basically stock suspension.

Put your weight in the front seat, jack the car up 1-1/2" in the front, and align the front end there. As much positive caster as you can get (we've run 7 degrees) zero camber, and 1/16" toe in.

If you want to see how that all works, here you go:



Alan you wouldnt have part numbers to the TRW-Moog parts would you...or even everything. If i go this route i would want to make sure i buy what i need the first time around.
