The whole thing was a kit by ssbc that I got from latemodelrestoration.com and i also bought stainless steel brake lines and hawk hp plus brake pads. In case someone doesn't recognise them, the wheels are 18x9 and 18x10 sve 10th anniversary cobra wheels with 245/40/18 and 275/35/18 nitto nt555's.
Tomorrow i'm doing frpp aluminum driveshaft, maxim motorsports upper/lower controll arms, bmr subframe connectors, tierod ends, spark plugs and wires, and radiator and new silicone coolant hoses.
Previous mods done so far: aod to T5 swap, mgw shifter, hids, kenwood 9980hd head unit with and alpine amp and two 10" JL w0's in a ported JL box.
I'll update with more pics of installed stuff tomorrow.

Looks good. Reminds me that I need to get my fox back up and running. And it reminds me that I now need a 5 lug swap for it.

Moser axles, full disc brake swap from ssbc with parts mixed from sn-95 and Lincoln parts and I added stainless steel brake lines and hawk hp+ pads.

Thanks for the compliments guys!

Man I like that. I so wish I never would've sold my old Fox. I miss that car so very much.

Looks great! What's next for this one? (Edit: Disregard the last question...I'm still learning to read...instead of just looking at pics lol.)

Gotta love the old Fox body. I liked my GT, but wanted an LX hatch so bad. Good looking car... I dig it.

I thought once you sold your other car you were getting a new 5.0?
I was going to, buy decided to build this as a nice daily first.

Dont remember the last time I saw a fox body with stock control arms.
Lol, well this one doesn't have stock anymore. Maximum motorsports upper and lower controll arm and subframe connectors.
