I have a CF hood on the way, so I will likely be working with that. After talking to a chassis fabricator here, it will likely be too expensive to do right. I would be looking at around $800 to do it properly. So it is most likely I will be looking into another set of coilovers that will have a few more features.
I am still in talks with the fabricator though about doing a lower a-arm. I might hit up a few other places about doing one instead. I need one that allows caster to be moved to center my front wheels in the well.
I have been kicking around some ideas, but I have a feeling I need to pull apart the front suspension and start figuring things out. It is 3 degrees outside so that is putting car stuff on hold. On a note of ball joints, I did discover something today.
My understanding is this monoball pin is the one with the same taper as ours.

I was not entirely keen on the monoball pin for a few reasons. The good news though is this site lists the moog part the mono ball replaces. Seems thee are extended oem style, and adjustable ones with boots built in. So I imagine we just need a bracket, and then we have an option for a cheaper lower ball joint. I will send out a few emails, and see what I can come up with.
