I had to do that too. 1 15mm bolt on each side of the car, right?

It's funny beacuse we did a buddys 94 GT and there wasn't a bolt in the way. I guess the 5.0/4.6 K members attach differently back there

yeah, i originally thought it was gonna be an easy job but boy was i wrong.

The hardest part was breaking the Ball Joint loose. My stock ball joint were SEALED and wouldnt break off. I had to Beat that pickle Fork so hard that sparks were flying off.

Did you install new springs/struts/end links too? Shorter end links make a big difference when you lower the car.

i had already installed Tokico 5 ways Struts and Eibach sportlines before i did the A-Arm install. I also had Shorter Endlinks because i installed my ST Sway bars.

At the same time i did my Termi A-Arm install i also installed a UPR Bumpsteer Kit :thumb:

So if you are still running stock wheels there is no reason to switch to Cobra control arms?

When you swap you get better balljoints and bushings.

I just had a ball joint going bad... I'm not big on taking things into a shop to have them worked on. I don't know how many times I've installed and removed springs so I didn't think pulling the a-arm would be that big of a deal. I purchased the 03/04 control arms just for the new ball joints... and of course knew they were a slight upgrade over my stockers. I had no problems removing the stockers though. Just a big breaker bar.

You'll still get the tighter turning radius.

That's what I was hoping. Yet another thing to add to the wish list...

if you're gonna change ball joints its not worth it just change the whole a-arm.
the bushings on the 03 cobra a arm are better. good alternative to polyurethane bushings
that get noisy.
