I have a question regarding the strut rods used on 67 mustang, are they adjustable, and if so can they be used on a 65 mustang, to make wheel alignment easier

on most cars with strut rods they are there to support control arm movement and set caster in the case of alignments...

Not the way the aftermarket ones are such as GW or TCP. That is what I assumed he was asking. But compaired to the 65-66 I guess they are adjustable. I changet to GW and never looked back.
