jb1200 Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Is this the Speedway "Pinto/Mustang II" rack? If so, I'd love to know the distance between the inner pivots. Can't seem to find that info online... No it's the Omni rack and pinion for Dodge. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Can you tell me that measurement (distance between the inner tie rods)? ^_^ Quote Link to comment

jb1200 Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Badass. B) Doesn't really look like you need the flares though? I really need them up front cause the wheel sticks out pass the fender by 2". Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 I really need them up front cause the wheel sticks out pass the fender by 2". So going much wider in the rear then? Quote Link to comment
jb1200 Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 So going much wider in the rear then? Oh yea for now I have 15x10's in the back, but for my show wheels I'm going 17x14's in the rear ISS Forged Wheels. 1 Quote Link to comment

jb1200 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Looking to change my current front suspension setup, because I'm at the current ride height that I like but I'm bottomed out. The shock can't go down any further and the spring has no tension on it. I've decided to go with the Mustang II setup, not the crossmember but the end pieces where the upper control arm and coilover attaches to. If I go this route it's also possible to go with a 15x10 wheel up front. Here are a couple pics to show what I'm talking about. I'm looking for opinions and suggestions. Quote Link to comment

Macpherson to an A Arm is OK if you must do it. The support for the Mustang II front suspension is unlimited. What are you going to do with your leftover MacPherson strut parts? 1 Quote Link to comment

jb1200 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 What do you guys think about this front end that they make for the 1200, yah or nah? 3 Quote Link to comment
CGS1948 Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 What do you guys think about this front end that they make for the 1200, yah or nah? Looks OK, but I prefer the two eye look :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 What do you guys think about this front end that they make for the 1200, yah or nah? It's popped up here a few times. I love it. But mostly because it's different, and I love the C10 Skylines... :thumbup: But it is craaaazy expensive... 1 Quote Link to comment
jb1200 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 I checked the price and it wAs only $3718 but I don't know about shipping to the states. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 I checked the price and it wAs only $3718 but I don't know about shipping to the states. I want to say it was more like $6k by the time it was shipped here? But I could be wrong... $4500 shipped is still more than I would want to spend... :rofl: Quote Link to comment
