Ughhh!!!...So if I get this Stage 3 Kit where the heck in Illinois could I get this installed?...And does it have any effect on the warranty?...Anyone with some local insight would be appreciated

How's your mechanical ability? It doesn't look very hard to install.

Hey Trey...If I had any skills I wouldn't have become a cop...Haha...Actually it's really more about time, space and equipment...Don't really have the garage space or the floor jacks so figured I'd just pay a professional...I still haven't figured out where to get general maintenance done let alone mods...And speaking of general maintenance, can any Ford dealer work on my Rap or should I be looking for some kind of special SVT certified mechanics?

Mavrik,

I will do my homework tomorrow and see who I would feel comfortable sending you to. I have to believe somebody can do it no problem.

It really is straight forward, even I can put it on:ROFLJest:

Hey Jarrett...I'm gonna do a little research this weekend and see if I will take on the job...Like I said I'm not completely incompetent and I do have the tools (minus the jacks /stands at the moment) but I guess I'm just a little gun shy at the thought of digging into my $50K little baby

I could be wrong, but I don't think RPG advertises this as a frame fixer. However in my case, it did straighten out the slight bend I had. And I know others who've also had similar success straightening out similar bends; some up to 1" even.

Hope that helps.

They don't advertise it, because that is not what it is designed for.. Bigj you were there when they installed mine, and it did take a little out of mine too..
