Your RX-2 is coming along beautifully! Can't wait to see it in person one day. By some chance, do you have any pictures of the bushings installed on the suspension?

I don't know exactly what the process is but I drop of the tie rods,pay the man and return in two days and they are good as new.they come out nice and tight with new dust/grease boots installed.

Mounted the front tires on the new set of wheels we are gonna run.
Bbs rs
16x7 front
16x9.5 rear
Just to see how its gonna look,might have to mod to fenders a tiny bit for turning clearance and roll the fenders also.we were going to take the car back to the body shop once its rolling so they can fix some minor things they forgot and will have them fix the fenders for clearance while its there.
Rears need to be assembled and mounted on the new tires
Waiting on a few parts from getting rebuilt so we can install all the tie rods and gear box back in.

that's a lot of wheel in the front arch there. might be hanging out a bit too wide.
lip them guards otherwise they'll get all bent up when the tyres catch on them.
also, love the wheel/paint colour combo. nice one.

I was having fitment issues at shock tower trying to fit the brake booster with the wilwood master cylinder so decided to not run the booster and made a adapter plate so I can run just the master cylinder.installed willwood brake master,wilwood clutch master,and all the steering components.
Removed the stock rear end and put the wheels where we want them inside the rear panels so we can take measurements.we decided on the 8.8 mustang rear end and upgrading to beefier 31 spline diff carrier and new axles,all new bearings and gears.had to get some brackets done up for the stock mounts and taking the diff housing to get shortened at cooks machine shop here in Los Angeles.we are getting the aerospace rear big drilled slotted vented brakes with E-brake.
Here is with wheels mocked up so we can get measurements,
All parts have been ordered and awaiting arrival so we can get the rear end installed and start focusing on other things.
