    At least I'm not the only one. I picked up my PGT in Sept of '07.

    It's been mostly a lack of time thing for me. I would do a little here and there. But it is running and driving and looks pretty damn good too.

      Yeah don't worry guys this build will go on! Slowly but surely lol that's why I'm in no rush with my coils being finished. I told my friend to take his time.

      Does anybody know what rear strut mounts fit our car? Or where I can get rear camber plates? I've seen Erik used Ford focus camber plates for the rear but he don't remember what year get used.

      Please and thank you!

            Slow happens when you get too many of them (projects) going at one time. To many people -it seems as though there is no progress. But if you tally up all of the progress on all of them -a single car would have been done long ago.

            I make tons of progress constantly -but just not on one car alone. I go back and forth between 4 of them right now (3 being Probes). I do what I can on one until I need something I don't have and then move onto another until I run into another thing I don't have... and so on, and so on...

              Yeah I got involved in re-doing rooms around the house and work itself picked up too, which is a good thing.

                  The universal triangle camber plates were no good wouldn't line up with the bolts of the original.

                  The only update I have. He has to figure out how to mount them to the strut now because of the struts weird design.

                  It's does not sit down on it properly. Hence these photos.



                  This is why it's taking so long also looking for another option at rear camber plates.

                    Gold ones I used had custom nuts with them. I'd contact seller and ask where they're at

                          Where can I find those? That would be great if that's all it takes.

                          Also can anybody on here tell me what the camber plates on the left of these ksports are? It would be great so I can start getting the rear done! Onyxhammer is using them on his probe from another probe so I know they will work.

                              Yes!!! Those look exactly like them from the google images and!!! They angle like the stock rears! Perfect! Ima look around or call ksport about them thank you so much. I really hope the bolts are spaced out the same.

                                Decided to just use the stock mounts in the rear. Getting the ksport protege5 rear camber plates is like $252 a piece and I can't find no alternative to using a camber plate in the rear as it's angled. Weird ass ford smh.

                                I'll update soon as I just bought more parts for this lovely car.
