One stop shop for the money

This is a quality setup for the money. I'm very happy with the fit and finish. Fastest way to get it on the road without having to look for quality original pieces.

Not the quality I'd expect from Speedway

Assembly delivered promptly and test fit on car. Problems started with steering arms. Originals couldn't be used, so I ordered your forged dropped arms. They wouldn't fit either. So I heated and bent them. Still no fit. I then had to build a fixture to stretch them! Finally upon closer inspection the weld quality on the wishbones is poor. I'll have to re-do some of them. Since I have enough shop equipment, I'll do it in house rather then send the whole mess back. If this was the average builder, It would be pretty disappointing.

The front end I ordered would not come for 2 mo. Talked to tech department who did a great job picking out the parts for a different front end kit. Received it within 2 weeks. Great job!
