Customer Reviews
Parts were manufactured wrong and now my rear lower control arm is bent out of shape from the rear kit. Can’t reverse it to its original form now. Do not buy.
We tried to reach out to Owen to figure out what happened here, but we haven't heard back.
Owen, please get in touch with us so we can help you get this sorted out.
We are building a Subaru top and a Miata bottom (mind out of the gutter) on our YouTube channel and this kit is what we needed to get it to "fit" well. I sincerely appreciate the fast processing by FM, thanks for that. The kit itself was a bit cumbersome with the provided hardware but we figured it out.
Don’t use the bolts given on the lower control arms as they are standard and not metric like the nut inside the control arm
This kit should include all metric hardware, this must've been an error. For future reference, if you have issues with our products please reach out, if we make errors we really appreciate the opportunity to fix them.
2001 completely stock with 15" wheels-
Installation was challenging and tested my mental limits on more than one occasion, much improvisation was required, also a mallet and large pry bar. Once they were installed I reconnected the front sway bar links, although I'm not sure they're doing much anymore as they are quite taught, the rear were never reconnected as they wouldn't reach. It also became evident that the 15" stock wheels rub on the suspension, and thus I ordered spacers. While waiting for those to arrive, every morning I would see my miata sitting on jack stands with no wheels, questioning myself, why did I do this? Alas upon their arrival and installation everything went smoother, I was able to mount my 26.5" wheels onto the miata with some cuts to the fender, mainly in the front, but the back needed a little cutting too. All is well now, and the car still drives smooth, honestly probably even smoother if you consider the ride difference from the bigger tires. Personally, I don't find it too scary without the rear sway bar, I'm more scared of my spacers doing something (I don't know what) even though I triple checked that each of them are on right.
Overall- the product does as advertised and if you're the type of person that want's to own a lifted miata, buy this kit and make your dreams come true.
It's also fun in the mud.
Rears drop in quick and easy. Fronts are impossible - shock rubs control arm. Wasted hours and hours trying to make these work.
NOTE FROM FM: As mentioned in the description, we're exploring the outer edges of sanity here. It's very possible for there to be issues that need to be solved (creatively) during installation. It's also important to get the orientation of all of the parts correct, it's possible that's what was going on here. 93NA, please reach out so we can try to help.
