    new mustang rear seat in a classic?

    That would be metal. The sn95 upper seat is approx 3 inches narrower then the 65. You have to section the side inner quarters add a piece between them and weld it all back up. You could use fiberglass if you wanted. Metal was easier and better in my opinion for the job. The sn95 lower...

    Great minds think alike. I have the same setup as you except sub a Versailles housing for the Currie.

    I don't mean to high jack; What rearend and brakes are you using? Your fault for posting pics of your rear! :p

    Anyone Seen this before?

    The extra 10 pounds isn't that big of a weight hit is it? With a three link it would be even less. But at this point I'd ask you how much added weight do you think that frame adds? Depends, if it was a street car not at all once set. If you are producing a suspension that the ride height...

    That is the reason a Satchel is inferior, because it does not have a Panhard or Watts. With the additional lateral link you can adjust the rear roll center. It could be argued that a Satchel link suspension could be made to do the same, but a Panhard would allow more adjustment and be easier.

    Anyone Seen this before?

    Well, to note a few problems; The front swaybar looks like it may have ground clearence issues? The upper A-arm heim joints are a little smaller then I would like, and the fact that every suspension point is solid would suck for a street car. The worst thing I see is the upper and...

    anyone interested in a new watts link and a 3 or 4 link in here

    Actually you can place the center link on the top or bottom. The main difference being, the center link is in compression (bottom) and not tension (top) under load (acceleration). Mike, Will the three link be a "true" three link or a torque arm? Will the center link be centered or offset...

    They could have taken offense? I know you need a "good" (not Hotmail.Com) email address when you apply for membership.

    2005 bullet wheels on a 65

    There's a problem with your math. An 8" wheel is actually 9" wide when measured. This is because the advertised width is measured from bead to bead. The actual width includes the outer material past the inner bead...aprox 1/2" each side. An 8" wheel with 0 offset will have a BS measurment of 4.5".

    Oh, I've been a member here a while, I just don't post much. Steel1212 what axle are you using to be able to use a 5.5 bs?

    Thank you, I appreciate it. Having looked at it, re-read your post I think I understand where the metal is going to buckle. But pics would be even better.

    Mini tubs

    I do have a 65, and your right its about an inch. You would have to remove the bump stop, and take the inner fender to the frame rail. But an inch is an inch! I agree for the additional inch it's alot of work. Still curious if anyone has done it for any year Mustang. Between a subtle mini tub...
