My FX2 is next!

So my FX2 project should finally be kicking into high gear this week. Got everything ordered for the suspension setup. This includes The Eibach Pro Truck 2/3 drop, Eibach Pro Dampers, Ground Force Drop Shackles and Hellwig front and rear swaybars. All the tracking numbers say they will be here by Friday. Dropped the Saleen 23's off for powdercoat last week, those will be done by next week. Just got to order the tires for them and that should happen sometime this week. Can't wait until everything with the suspension and wheels is done. I have gotten a lot of inspiration from everybody on this forum (Stealth, OgRedd, BlackSVTampa in particular!) Thanks for all the great posts guys!

Sounds awesome man mine is in full swing as soon as I get back from Afghanistan this time my Troyer performance e-fans and underdrive pulley will be in my Saleen rims and tires will be ready to be put on and my Saleen hood will be painted and my lower FX2 grille from fomoco should be done and ready to install. By the way what color are you getting your rims powder coated

I kinda feel the same way sometimes, but then I remember I paid $350 for a set of bangin *** wheels....then I don't feel too bad anymore . Not like anyone around me has them so I wont be seeing them unless I am looking on here so I'm cool with it.

Ordered it from www.neverenoughauto.com They give you a $25 discount if you order 2 sway bars at a time using the code 2sways. I paid a total of $408 for both of them. The rear alone from them is $220. They had the best deal I could find and I looked for a while.
