Excellent video. Thanks for making the time and sharing it with us. Alignment and squaring are both very important. Closer you are to perfect, the better it drives.

[@foxbuilder]

Thanks. Glad you like the video.

I have a 64 500 sports coupe and I can't wait to do a serious update to the suspension and brakes! Very glad i found this channel!!! Thanks very much! Im in Colorado. Was curious where abouts you are. Would be very cool if you were somewhere close!

[@foxbuilder]

I’m in Illinois. Glad you like the channel. Hope to get back on this project some point in the future. Thanks for watching

Looks like a pretty nice suspension setup. I've look at something similar a few times for nova applications, definitely considering strut for my next project.

[@foxbuilder]

I was red something that would have more travel, then say a mustang II setup with the dual control arm. Found the Aje k-member that uses foxbody suspension components and figure this was the way to go.

[@OneMoreBolt]

@@foxbuilder from what I have seen, strut style definitely has more travel than mustang ii. Seems like it is becoming more and more favored lately for street/drag racing, keeps the front tires on the ground while allowing a good bit of weight transfer.

[@foxbuilder]

Yes sir. We’ll see how well it works

[@strtcar]

Awesome job!

[@foxbuilder]

Thanks

I'm curious if there is a better place to put the rear plumb bobs, as many rear ends are not exactely centered in the car, off left/right and forward/rear. In some car shop manuals it shows places on the frame to use for measuring/squaring, etc. My 1961 Galaxie Shop Manual shows where to put the plumb bobs.

[@foxbuilder]

There is a few spot on the rear frame that look to be a good location. I ended up using the leaf spring mounts.

What spindles did you use for the car? Thanks

[@foxbuilder]

I have 99-04 mustang spindles on it at the moment

[@mr-jdubb]

@@foxbuilder awesome thanks for the information

[@Jas-wd9zh]
