    Is the doner parts list complete?

    Hi,
    The "what you need" list on the FFR site still says to save all the pieces you can because the list may change. But it seems that are are some doner pallet providers saying "everything you need" included. How do they know?

    I assume that since the 818 is no longer in prototype mode, the list is complete and likely not to change. Is it posted anywhere?

    Thanks,
    Doug

    The list on the website is smaller than the one in the build manual.
    I cannot say if the one in the manual is 100% complete.

    That being said, *IF* they are really in the process of making a wiper system that will use the OEM parts, then the list will change at some point to include these parts too.

    It may be away from prototype, but it is still under improvements.

    Be specific on "everything you need" by a crate supplier. At the time I placed my order with AJW the sway bar was not on the list and they have been unable to supply it after 5 months. I eventually gave up waiting and bought a sway bar. If you want to install ABS, HVAC, wipers, power steering, or anything that is not on the basic FFR build, be sure to specify exactly what you need in writing to the donor crate supplier at the time of your order.
