These are my impressions after installing the CPP Suspension kit on my 1965 Mustang. I knew I needed to completely rebuild by front suspension so I started with the steering and then moved to the suspension. I'm not a big fan of the stock suspension, it's based on the lowly Falcon and it leaves a lot to be desired. The strut rod is a cheap way to locate the lower control arm. When you look for alternatives to the strut rod there are Mustang II kits but they require a lot of work and welding. There is apparently a MacPherson strut style option but that didn't interest me either. That left the CPP with upper and lower tubular A-arms. It's based on their Nova kit, which makes sense as the Nova and Falcon share the same style of suspension. They have multiple tiers of kits, from the lower A-arms only all the way to this kit which included all four Viking double adjustable shocks.
This is not intended as a step by step installation but rather an overview and some impressions.
Here are some links with more information:

I bought the Viking coil overs for my 65. Do you know what the 8 gold spacer looking things are for? I saw them in your packaging as well at 1:54 and I can't figure it out lol

how much camber can you adjust on here? for these cars ideally need 3 degrees positive camber
@swooshdave

3 degrees is way too much. Where did you see that number? Opentracker doesn’t recommend more than 1.5 which is what I’m using.

I wonder if he meant caster.

@@davidkuhn3970 Caster on the early cars is tricky to set because the shims affect both the caster and camber.

So what CPP kit did you buy? The pro touring 2 kit? I know there is a 1 & a 2, wondering which you picked up?
