    Tyler, has any of your customers put that much down, if its already been done I won't waste the effort to test?

            Anybody have a pic of the sway bar attached to front with motor in place? Preferable an M3 style with the mounting to the strut. What is the length between the sway bar and the subframe (IOW- the new width of the subframe if that makes sense)?

              No pics, but the width should be the same. All the new subframe does is relocate the mount from rear to front.

                  Anyone looking to do the subframe modification, I am selling one so you don't have to drop yours while it gets fabd up. I can cut it and ship directly to T too. Tyler modified mine and it came out flawless. post pics soon.

                      Gobuffs ours is an m3 (suspension techniques) it worked fine we did have to shorten the drop links about 3 "

                        Ours had to be shortened, keeping the m3 drop links the same length put the bar too close to the control arms
