This is coming out of an SVT, not the Ford Racing replacement sub-frame. Caliper to Caliper.
I just figured that replacing everything would be easier than removing the LCA's and having the bushings pushed out and new ones pressed in. This way I get rear disc's to replace the crappy drum brakes and everything else when I am at it. As far as I can see it will only be around 10 bolts to get the whole thing out in one piece, 4 on the sub-frame, 4 on the trailing arms, and the other 2 being the struts. It shouldn't take more than 1 day to do the re-and-re. I should be able to do this in the driveway with a good impact gun and fair size compressor.
