Im just not a fan of focus fantics, gives off an immature vibe everytime I go on there... I dont go on the forums for off-topic, and all that other crap, so Id much rather come to FJ where you can get helpful advice and criticism...

Im building a circle track SVT, and SVT brakes will not fit behind the wheels Im running, and in '05 they upgraded to beefier ball joints. Plus if I ever need to replace any of the parts from accidents, etc... the '05 stuff will be cheaper and easier to come by than SVT parts.

massive. there is no difference in balljoint between svt and standard zetec zx3. so the part should stil lbe cheap. all you need then is 05 calipers and rotors. which shouldn't be too hard to come by.
In 05, there was. 05 and up cars came with beefier ball joints. 06 and 07 had the bigger struts, hence why Im looking for an 05 car to trade with.....

Yes, the size of the struts did change. Thats why 00-05 suspension wont work on 06 and up cars without the omni kit... I had an 07 ST, I know this first hand, Im on my eighth focus, Ive been there, done that. Thats why they cant be 05 and up, its 05 or nothing.
