ok, to start off what all is included is aircraft aluminum trailing arms with solid steel heim joints, rear toe links with solid steel heim joints, and two new differential bushings. this kit is actually meant to help your drag launch and eliminate wheel hop in the FD. switching to the heim joints eliminates the flex of the old rubber bushings, and the new differential bushings eliminate the old gel filled ones that pop and bang around. I ended up switching out the differential bushings for a set of powerflex bushings due to them having lips to help them stay in the mounts, whereas the rotary performance one's do not. regardless, even pushing about 400 hp and i'm not feeling wheelhop in first, and second slips a little but no more 3rd or 4th wheelspin. I'd suggest these to anyone but understand that the diff bushings are no cake job. I highly suggest having a shop do them, preferably who know rx-7's. here's the link to the product mentioned and i hope this helps all the FD guys trying to keep traction.
