      Very nice!! Good write up.

      Another quick Question: Can the Aspire strut assemblies swap ut between the Apsire and the Festy? My Festy struts are wasted.

        I think so. The spring perch on the Aspire rear struts is higher though. Good for tall tires.

          That's good news. I would like to raise my festy a few inches since it's going to be an explore vehicle. I guess I'll find all this stuff out tomorrow eh. Thanks for the info...appreciate it!

            perches are taller, allows better fitment of the 185-60-14s and if you can manage it, taker your festy springs from the front and use them in the back(minus 2 full coils i believe) and use the aspire springs up front with 1-1.5 coils removed to get proper ride hight and better handeling.

              Another quick question for ya'll. Where can I find a new set of sway bar bushings for the aspire swap (the rubber ones)?

                probably FMS

                1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
                1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
                2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

                1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

                If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?
