You may or may not. Some cars can be lowered and aligned to spec with this kit, some cant due mostly to Focus manufacturing inconsistancies. In general, the lower you go the more likely you'll need a some form of camber correction. With this kits modest drop, you never know.

I'm just hoping and praying nothing happened to my Saleen kit after I got rear-ended a few weeks back. Still waiting on the body shop to give me an answer. From what I can see, everything LOOKS okay, but we'll see.

Would it be a good idea to install a camber kit before a problem occurs? Or would that cause a problem? |

x2 on the washers/bushings please.
Can someone actually explain the washers/bushings as my stock focus did not have those washers/bushings on the rear shocks. Last edited by paulicat : 05-23-2008 at 10:08 AM. |

Sorry guys, we ran out of our latest pallets and Saleen kinda dropped the ball on drop shipping these latest orders. Their HONEST answer as to why both my last 8 purchase orders and my order for a stock shipment to me was...
"sorry man, we ran out of bubble wrap"... I'm not making this up. Even if that was true, I could have overnighted them a freakin roll instead of them sitting on the orders for 2 weeks... ARRGGHH!!! Jared my rep over there claims to have gotten everything shipped though. Sorry!!! And thank you to all who had to wait a little while, your patience is appreciated!!!

That's probably on of the lamest excuses Saleen could of come up with
. Hopefully, I'll be seeing my kit here in the coming week, if everyones order has been shipped

If you ordered the kit from us in the last 2 weeks or so, it wont come from us, it will come from Saleen. The delays have been discussed above.
They all should been shipped at the end of last week however, which should mean you'll receive it this week some time. Thanx for your patience!!!

Saleen is even going to be shipping direct to Canada? I thought you were saying it would have to go to your shop first for Canadian orders as they didn't do drop orders to Canada.

Ehhh... Forgot your in Canada. Your right. It will probably have to be shipped in that fashion.
