Had a focus st roll at the Dothan, AL area autocross a few years back. Unsure of the mods but it was on 200tw tires. Only vehicle that has ever rolled there lol.

Don’t forget about replacing the bushings. I’ve got 1,000 worth of bushings sitting ready to replace for the spring lol.

What?! Bushings? Wait a minute... Those wear out too? Come on, next thing you know your gonna tell me that I need to check my wheel bearings frequently, bleed brake fluid once or twice a year even if it doesn't boil and that my battery has to be strapped down.

I was told that my rubber bushings are "maintenance free." :cry:
Lol I wasn’t even thinking of that from a wear perspective. You can change both front and rear to gain camber in both and caster in front. It also helps massively with deflection when under load. All about making the tires work and I’d argue they are pretty important for a serious autocross build.
