So to clarify. I will need to get the FC front hubs? I'm also assuming I will need the FC bearings as well? Or can I use the se bearings? Just wondering so I can go ahead an start gathering new parts....

Yes you need the hubs and inner bearing from the fc platform ... you will use your fb outer bearing ...

Just got off the phone with the machine shop. I'll be getting part of the order next week. I'll take some picture and post them when I get my hands on them.
I want to thank everyone for be patient. I know my machine shop is not the fastest but I promise I'll deliver. This is to important for everyone.

I recognize I am too late to get in the first run, however, I am interested in a full kit when the time comes for the next batch. I will keep $425 saved to be ready whenever this happens. Thank you so much to KansasCityREPU for taking the time to do this and I look forward to another round!

Got a picture of the first parts off the line. These are the rear caliper brackets. These are in red because they are for testing and fitment. All the production parts will be in black.
I tried to nail the machine shop down on when I would have all the parts but I'm just a little guy as far as they are concerned. I'm hoping for next week.

I ordered a couple of extra kits. Once I get everyone taken care of, if I have any left I can let you know. Your number two on my wait list. If I have enough interest in a second run I'll let you know. I barley had enough for the first run. I would need at least 8 complete kit orders (front and back) to make a second run. This is because the machine shop needs to make enough parts to cover cost.

I spoke with the machine shop today. They are saying the front should be done next Friday 8/15 and the rear 8/22.
On a side note, how many people would be interested in a strut tower brace? Next time I'm at the machine shop I'll be dropping mine off to have measured drawings made up.

I don't believe i will need my rear brackets. I ordered a rear kit for the e-brake pieces ... I am buying a granny 8.8 rear which I believe will come with t2 brackets. I haven't gotten it yet, I'll verify once i get it and If so, you can have my rear brackets.

Sorry it's taking so long. I've been scared at trying to push them to much. Their a pretty big shop here and they could have told me to hit the bricks. If I do another run I might front the funds myself and worry about getting paid when I sell them.
