when tom makes it over with the boat should be here by may i was told.

next thing on the to do list...

2mm spacers in rear since 5mm requires longer studs witth this particular width and offset.

figs camber bushing , right now camber is off by 2.7 degrees in the front which is bad. the bushigs should put me at 1.7 and i would look a lot more flush which would be great.

Figs lower bushing for tire wear on the front

in a sense of safety and stiffness, sure. 16 lbs, of course. but running harnesses and gopro camera, it will do its job nicely.

No. A harness bar only means if you roll the car, you're dead because the harnesses will prevent you from being able to squeeze down when the roof collapses. But, hey, it's your life, do what you need to do.
