AJEracing install in 67 mustang

12sec67 · Apr 8, 2008

We (CPRstreetmachines) will be installing AJE racing's tubular K-member, A-arm, Coil over kit front suspension on our 1967 turbocharged mustang. We will be able to notch out the shock towers, add rack and pinion, upgrade to cobra disc brakes, have a bolt in K-Member like the new mustangs, adjustable coil over struts and much more room in the engine bay for the existing turbo kit. ;D

what it will look like with the AJEracing front suspension:

AJE still uses shock towers? what is the benefit to this setup? You would still have to add shock towers to the car

Cool, keep us updated with pics and install tips.

see the pic above, to see how the passenger side is notched.

We're going to try to take as many pictures as possible so everyone can see the steps on how to install this kit.:SNSign:

Uh, almost? It is already there. I have my headers almost done for a 351 in a 67. They are mocked up and just need finish welding. I thought about a new frontend, but by the time you do all that work, you can make it fit as is. More room is good, but modern R&P, struts, and brakes would make the car drive sooo much better. Maybe down the road for me.

Mustangman has a 351w in a 65-66... he will need a notched tower to ever think about doing a twin turbo set up

pulled off the upper and lower control arms, steering, shocks, struts, steering box... and all the other misc crap that isn't needed any longer

When I get up the nerve I cut the towers

how about those front brakes? i could use those on the 69 cougar project , drums are no good for a driver.

Ill take the upper and lower control arms if theyll fit my 66

12sec67 · Apr 11, 2008

sorry, the suspension was on it last leg so it will be going into the scrap bin and I had the brakes sold before I took them off.

one last look before I start cutting it up

I ended up using a sawz-all and plasma cutter to get most of it out, I still need to fine trim up everything use the spot weld remover and the air hammer.

went ahead and made a template out of cardboard and used a paint pen to mark the towers

iskwezm · Apr 11, 2008

you are crazy doing that before Knotts

12sec67 · Apr 11, 2008

Yeh, I have some late nights ahead.

bnickel · Apr 11, 2008

you have much bigger balls than i sir.!!!!!! no biggie on the brakes, just thought i'd ask

1320stang · Apr 11, 2008

Sweet, I've been waiting to see one of these installed. I think it's the best option out there. I like the RRS stuff too though.
