That's the whole point of what we're trying to tell you, SR - you don't NEED another supplier - Shelby no longer uses this screwed up system, they have a fine suspension right now, they are using it as we speak on cars they are building TODAY! It will fit right onto your car with no modifications at all, and your car will still be 100% Shelby, as it should be. In order to use these properly designed parts you will need to replace everything on both sides of the car in the front from the frame attach points outward. They are telling you that they have no parts to help you because they are trying to replace your terribly engineered parts with replacements that are exactly as you have now - terribly engineered. They don't want to give you a complete new front suspension because that costs significantly more, and it may very well open floodgates of complaints with guys who have the same bogus setup that you have. It may be true that they don't want to replace your entire front suspension, but the claim that they don't have parts that fit is laughable. Ask them if they are building any cars this week, and if so where the parts are coming from. When they answer tell them to pick up the phone and order more! They're pissing on your leg and telling you it's raining!
