Easy fix - don't hit any curbs!

[low89fox]

just out of curiosity if this cars road driven.. do you have warrant of fitnesses or roadworthy inspections ect that it has to undergo?

Yes, it is road driven. All they inspect is my emissions equipment.

And in all honesty, in a fight with a curb, I'd trust this cut stock one:



Over this aftermarket tubular one:



I am going to make some nice tubular ones in the future, but until then, these get the job done.

im npt being a hypocrite but!!

i've owned foxbodys and they put down torque i would cut or notch into anything bro id actually reinforce. now that i drive bmws i dont cut corners anymore spend the money to achive the ride height you want

If it is anything like California, they only check emissions equipment and that its not leaking fuel as far as a visual inspection goes.

If you pay the right price you can pass with any mods you want to.

thats the point... None of this is safe...and one must be an idiot to think otherwise...... Im just waiting for him to tell us How safe it is again because the coil overs he used magically reduced his cars weigh and the tension to the control arm... im dyin to see the formula for that from this Novus engineer here

[rice4life]

Do what you want as long as its safe.

Bystrov is drunk.

Ugh. What is your problem?

SRSLY... just burn your car the world would be a safer place without it (literally) .....

Truly, you're embarrassing and a threat to the whole modified car scene. It's because of people like you that laws get passed trying to stop all of us from modifying our cars. It's one thing to be too stupid for your own good, but you're a danger to everyone. I'm not sure if its better to ban you to show our community doesn't support dangerous mods or let you stay in hopes you might learn how wrong the above mod is.

Where's the damn "Like" button at? Can we petition the admin here to do just that?

LOL When you search on google for 'cutting control arms', I was (sorta) surprised to see that lots of the threads on google are made by Fox body owners. And yes. they all got flamed for their shitty hack jobs...

Here's some control arm pics

Everyone get over my cut control arms, lol... I like them being cut. If I ever have any problems with them, I will admit that I'm wrong and get custom tubular ones. But until then, I'm not changing it.

I may be ignorant, but my car's safety is perfectly sound.

hahaha are you really going to argue this over educated Engineers??

im sorry but far too many stanceworks members lately give way to much credit for shitty rides...

you car had great potential, before you made it unsafe. God help you when you will hit yet another serious bump....

and people, please stop supporting idiots with "don't worry about what people say Just build how you want it" BS.... you came on a public forum asking for honest advice and opinion ... now that you got it from several members, you continue to ruin your more than stock pony with "stance.. furthermore you are being flamed for shitty decisions that Not only threaten your life, but more so people driving and walking around you.

You deserve a round of applause, because I 100% agree with you.

I've been quiet for a while, but OP- you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, nor do you have any regard for good advice. Stop being a hackjob and standing behind "oh well it's bad to start". It may have sucked to start with, but that's no excuse to make something worse.

That's like punching a hole in a wall, then running through the wall entirely. "Well it already had a hole, so what does it matter?"

yes foxobody suspension sucks, that doesnt mean you can cut notches in your control arm though
