Hey guys thanks for the add. I don't have a mustang but I do have a 49 Anglia with what I'm told a Mustang ll front end. Would somebody be able to confirm that with these pictures? Thanks for any help.
Hello, not exactly sure what we're looking at, but that does not appear to be a Mustang II rack & pinion due to its dimensions. There are a lot of variation of Mustang II suspensions... many aftermarket companies have roughly copied the design. To help you identify what you have, a picture of the control arms / shocks / cross-member would be more effective. You can also just google for pics of Mustang II front suspensions.
Generally what you'll have are upper & lower control arms, with a captive spring between the lower control arm and the cross-member. A shock goes through the spring, the spindle holds the disc brakes and connects to the rack & pinion steering. Strut-rods are connected to the lower control-arm, or a gusset welded to the cross-member to add lateral stability. Stabilizer end-links are also connected to the lower control-arms.
