      You should start! So I list most of the parts in part 3 and part 4. I do have a revision vid on the tie rod ends coming up...I incorrectly use stock fox body tie rod ends when I should have used a bolt through set (more to come on this).

    I’ve got a running 96 cobra drivetrain, I just wonder if I could just swap in that stock k member and use the new style suspension, cut what I don’t need from the 67.

    • @FollowTheBuilds
      @FollowTheBuilds  Год назад

      You could use the 96 drivetrain…you can use the front suspension but I would recommend using fox coil overs. Sounds like a fun build!

    So you cant put a coyote motor right ? because you need to remove the shock tower correct ? I am trying to do a coyote swap on my 1965 mustang and I was looking at "Mustang AJE Suspension Front Suspension Kit" but I see that you trimp the schock towers. can you still fit a coyote?

    • @FollowTheBuilds
      @FollowTheBuilds  Год назад

      You can fit a Coyote with the shock towers notched. 28.5” clearance is required. I got 29” so…so it’s close! Another option is to make the front radiator support removable…that way you can slide the drivetrain vs lower it in.

      Yes 2” SN95 drop spindles. They are at the lowest setting still with quite a bit of travel. Hope to upload an update soon with more details.

    I know there's a lot of ways to do this and they're all probably fine. Wondering why you chose to keep the shock Tower at all when there are so many ways to completely eliminate it?

    • @FollowTheBuilds
      @FollowTheBuilds  2 года назад

      Great question and something I wrestled with. Finally landed on McPherson SN95 set up as modern mustang has. It retains the shock tower. I love the adjustability of it all and the ability to lock it down once in spec. The mustang II front end is proven and a great option I just went this route.

    The music is horrendous and way to loud. Makes the video unbearable to watch unless you mute the video and put on subtitles. The entire video would of been much better simply without the music.
