Does anyone know what the instant center is for a stock 79-93 (or even 94 and up if they are much diffrent) mustang?

I know sombody has measured it before, and I am too lazy to do it myself.

Yes, I measured and sketched, and checked the weight at all four wheels, a long time ago. Its filed somewhere in my car folder at home. If I remember, I will see if I can find it.

Hmmm, yes I should have been able to pick that up just by looking at the rear trailing arms



doesn't that just mean the instant center is behind the car, that is where the lines intersect. I have never though about the issues relating to having an instant center behind the car, any ideas?

I am going to think about this
