2011 GT front control arms
Hi guys,
I'm french and I registered myself here to have some answers for my problems.
I changed my 2011 GT front control arms, first by wrong motor craft models (the ball joints size was smaller than my standard parts and made a lot of noise after installation).
After some search I decided to buy BMR control arms (non ajustable).
I installed them and made a front wheels adjustement.
All was perfect until yesterday, during a cruise at 60 mph the steering wheel became crazy and made a lot of violent vibrations.
Then on "chaotic" road the problems happened again.
I rode on AmercianMuscle website that 2 people had exactly the same problem.
The only solution seems is to remplace the original Epas for a Boss 302 Epas...but the cost is close to 1200 $ and to ship IN France you can easily add 50% more !
If someone installed these items can you tell me please what I really have to do ?
Then I found a lot of mistake on eBay for OEM control arms : can you please Tell me wich is motorcraft parts number for 2011 GT ?
Is it MCF-2309 and 2310 or MCF-2364 and 2365 ?
Thank you so much for your answers
