In this post you mention the powerhouse shaft is solid with CV's at both ends. I assumed you were talking about their aluminum driveshaft, no?

By the way, I measured the distance from the lca body mount to both holes in my che anti-squat brackets and the way my car sits right now the lower hole is atleast 1/2 inch closer than the stock hole. I was wondering why I had to adjust my lca's so much just to get the pinion yoke nose to go up and now I know.

Thanks for pointing that out! I have no idea what possessed me to make that mistake. I was indeed talking about the powerhouse aluminum shaft. I just wrote CVs instead of universals/cardans.

It has now been edited to correct my screwup!

Ok I have all my new suspension parts on my work bench waiting for a nice spring day to install. I work in a large Steel Mill and have access to bins and bins of bolts and nuts. Could somebody tell me the size and length of the bolts for a LCA install. Would stainless bolts be better?? Probably Metric and would type of nut and washer does it use? Thanks

Well, here's the problem.

If you belive that you must have new bolts, then you need the bolts from Ford. They are TTY type bolts, these are not an off-the-shelf item.

If you don't belive that you need special bolts then just re-use the stock ones.
