Just put in the front sway bar. Reminded me of a Chinese puzzle. Then when everything was thread locked and torqued back to spec, I realized I ran the bar over the radiator hose! Undid and redid everything!This is the Build Thread for 2019 GT. Reply below.
Now I'm about to change the mt-82 fluid. I have enough to do it all synchromesh or all 75w90 or a mix of both. Still undecided. I have read everything I could find and it seems to me what comes out most often is 2/3 gear oil and 1/3 synchromesh, the reverse Calimer cocktail. I will drain it and check again in here before I refill.Just put in the front sway bar. Reminded me of a Chinese puzzle.

Well, I think we need to use the term "fit" loosely. They poke, a bit like PP2 cars do. Here's a picture to give you an idea. That's the 19x11 ET56 Forgestars with 30mm spacers, stock GT shocks, H&R Super Sport springs and 2.2 degrees of camber. Never had any suspension travel issues and I'm at twenty 20 minute track sessions that included some kerbs and bumps. Doesn't look good but it works on my car the tire never touched the fender.I'm a little surprised that you were able to get your 11" ForgeStar F-14's to fit under your front fenders with 305-30-19 Michelin Sport 4S's in the front. I have a 2017 GT and with the same wheelset and tires, I had to add -3.70 of camber to make sure they'd clear under compression.
I see... This is strange... you got fender rub with more camber than me, and with the car sitting about 3/4 of an inch higher....I can think of only 3 possibilities...Yes, I have basically the same setup except for Steeda Sport lowering springs. The Steeda springs lower the car a bit more than an inch in the front and an inch in the rear. I did get some fender rub with mine looking the same as yours with some "poke". I had about negative 2.7 on the front when I got the rub on the passenger side, see photo. Here's where I'm at currently with more camber, driver's side. I did discover though that the first alignment shops rack was more than likely out of calibration. The second shop seemed to manage the process much better.

Maybe for a while, but not for long.I have the impression the MT-82 can shift faster than the Tremec. Yes? No?
