I went ahead and stuffed on the 17" Torque Thrusts that were on my 02 Crown Vic (yeah, I'm that guy). The tires are the OE 255/55 ZR17s that came on my 06 Mustang GT. So I think that's at least fitting. The rears are too big for the fender lips. I did weld on a 2x2 square stock on the axle to extend the bumpstops. From careful measurements that should leave me a 1/2" more than I need. Yeah. I've posted about 200 different things I said I'd do. But, right now.. here's where I'm thinking. Do front power disc brake upgrades from CJ Pony Parts. Do a T5z transmission swap from Modern Driveline. Gasp. Do a late 90's Explorer 8.8 swap. Get disc and 3.73s with LSD for basically nothing. Yeah, I know I might have to modify the tunnel a bit. It is also 1/4" wider Even though these Torque Thrusts look great, I'll probably do a S197 tire/wheel combo as I have lots of freedom in backspacing and wheel placement. Won't do anything until next year... For now...

Wow Tough story. Good of him to bring a part over to you with that going on. If he is looking for parts, I have extra's, am willing to send him some so he can save his money for what's important.

When sales are good, customer service goes down because the marginal gains are minimal. When things start to go downhill, it's a cheap way to differentiate themselves. After the downturn of 2007-2008, customer service was amazing, now it's starting to drop because they don't need to be nice to make sales.

As it states on the shows WEB page, this will the last year for this show. I have registered and hope to have the car together in time to put it in this show and take it for a drive on the Pony Run the Friday before the show. https://www.npdlink.com/store/pages/ss_ford.html
