Im getting alsfb but I dont know how many recall kits I need. My car had the recall done so does that mean I only need one kit for the front?:thumb:

you might not need any.... as long as the bolts are fine and the threads don't strip out your good to go........

I put ASFB on my old RUST FREE 91 and never had a problem........

this recall kit is kind of lame if u ask me....... you know how many taurus subframes I've taken off and put back on without the recall kits? HUNDREDS.... never stripped the first bolt out....... KNOCK ON WOOD

The recall only applies to rust belt vehicles. I don't know how many of those you see in Florida...

yes each recall kit services two corners of the subframe. I got a recall kit for the front of my old 92 because one of the captured nuts broke when i removed them. The recall kit has beefier captured nuts and it is nice to work with new bolts. then again that car was in MN/OH its entire life. I bought ASFBs and another recall kit for my 95 but I have yet to install them. The car is rust free so I probably won't need them but i would rather just put in the new bolts since i got a discount on the kit anyways................LMAO I said captured nuts.... :nut:
