"British American Transfer lists some of the items you are looking for: \n  \nhttp://www.batinc.net/main.htm \n  \nI purchased new rear spring seats from them a few months ago.  They also list the reinforced rear subframe.  The Ford OEM subframe by itself has not been reinforced to prevent breakage of the swaybar mounting tabs.  I think the BAT subframes were reinforced by ATI (a company that did a huge batch for a Group Buy on the CEG forum many years ago).  A good welding shop could reinforce a subframe that you provide them as long as you give them enough information to do the work properly.  Call BAT and see if they still stock the reinforced subframe.  If BAT still has this, then it is a matter of weighing the cost of getting one already done properly (and rust free) vs. digging-up a used subframe that will have some degree of rust and then searching for a welding shop and waiting for them to get the job done. \n  \nRock Auto definitely has a listing for the rear strut mounts and the rear-rear control arms but not the front rear control arms.  There is a guy on CEG that is developing billet front rear control arms but if this does get off the ground, they won't be available until next year and they will not be cheap. \n  \nMany people say that a 15 mm deepwell socket works well as an alignment tool; I can't speak with experience on this short cut.  Keep and eye on Ebay.  Very often, you can find these Ford specialty tools there because there were many dealerships that went out of business.  Vendors accumulate the stock of old dealership specialty tools and resell them on Ebay.  Here are the alignment pins you are looking for: \n  \nhttp://www.ebay.com/itm/OTC-Rotunda-Ford-Focus-Sub-Frame-Alignment-Pins-/390337014056?pt=Motors_Automotive_Tools&amp;vxp=mtr&amp;hash=item5ae1e62928 \n  \nThe Ad says there are 3 but do they mean 3 pins or 3 pairs of pins?  I don't know. \n  \nA specific tool set to keep an eye out for is T94P-1000-FH / FLMH.  This is a master tool kit that contains the alignment pins but it also contains the alignment tools for the shifter cables, the powertrain-to-subframe alignment tool and a ton of other useful stuff.  I think I got my set off of Ebay for around $50.  Some tools may be missing from these kits so make sure you inquire before spending.  There is one kit right now on Ebay but it is missing way too many tools (pins are gone but the powertrain alignment tool is still there). \n"
