Yesterday I cleaned up the area where the old strut rods and control arms used to be and painted with Eastwood Rust Encapsulator.

Then drilled these 3 holes in each strut rod housing for the new Strong Arms.

Strong Arms in place. These spindles have too many pits around the bearing seals so I'll be using new spindles.

Also got most of the drivers side inner wheel well cut out for the mini-tub.

Some small updates:

 

Got the Total Control Products bump steer kit installed as well as the huge Ride Rech Muscle Bar

I also just about have the drivers side mini tub ready to go in. Just need to clean up the metal edges a little more. Peeling off the Dynamat was a pain in the ass but had to be done to get a clean weld. Now its time to do the other side.

Very nice upgrades. You've got bigger balls than me to tear into an already really nice Mustang. How cool to be able to drive your 69 to the prom!

It wasn't easy! It took a lot of contemplating before I tore into the wheel wells. They way I looked at it, if I use factory wheel wells and make it look as factory as possible and my fold down seat can still be used, I wont loose anything. I'll ge gaining an 11" wide wheel in the back!

 

 

Very cool!

 

Thank you!
