Rebuilding my Crown Vic front end, swapping out an electric steering rack from a 2015 Ford Mustang, and installing all-new suspension and brake components. Thank you for the continued support!

I would definitely like to do a front end swap on my 1986 F-150

Could you use the factory CV sway bar? The electric rack takes up a bunch of room.

Good afternoon I’m doing a project Its a 68 f100 But I bought a 2014 mustang gt to do the swap I have the front suspension from a crown Vic But I’m trying to swap the most parts I can from the mustang including the electric power steering Do you think the process It’s similar to your video

Where did you get that different top mount for the frame??

Great work. It all looks so nice. I am currently doing my 1979 swap as well and I as looking into the EPAS setup for steering since it is cheaper than adding power steering to a Coyote engine and also a much cleaner look. Did you use Performance Productions kit for this?

I just now had time to watch the first 3 episodes and waiting for more . What install kit did you use ? How did you decide where to put the holes for the locator pins in the frame ? Was there a certain point you came from to find that location point . Several years ago i watched a few of these changes done but there were no kits to purchase back then so they were done in a lot of different ways . I like this kit it looks a lot cleaner that some of the others i followed .

Hey man, sorry for the delayed reply. I used the backyard customs kit. I ended up just going centered between the two existing holes in the frame or maybe slightly forward between the two. I haven't gotten the front end back on the truck yet so I don't know that it's necessarily the right move but it seems to be the most used method. Just make sure you double check measurements, make sure everything is square and you should be good to go.

What coilovers did you use?

What hub bearing is that? I didn’t see any wires?

@ReinhartsGarage Жыл бұрын

Moog wheel bearings, the ABS wires just clip in so I disconnected them. Link here: www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=1146565&cc=1432106&pt=1636&jsn=19
