**An important Update!** In the video the Spring Perch where the spring sits on; the tang must face towards the body (tang in the back). I installed it tang to the front since that's how it was when I took it off. The correct way is Tang on the back or you will have trouble bolting the shock and the spring wanting to bow out!

Hi! I have a 62 Falcon Ranchero with a 170 inline six and I just wanted to say thank you so much for posting such an in-depth video of the process going through the front suspension. I was recently gifted a set of upper shafts and had absolutely no clue as to where they went, and watching your video helped me locate them!!! This video is such a good foundation guide for when I go through and redo my suspension. Once again, thank you so much for posting videos like these because they help young car enthusiasts like myself keep our vehicles on the road and educate us throughout our journey. :)

Nice work Omar. I just converted my 60 comet two door from 4 lug to 5 lug V8 front and rear suspension and 8” RR with front 4 piston disc brakes. Freakin outstanding result!

Two things, I think I would check the ball joint stud diameter for the '62 and '63 ball joints and if they were the same I would weld the mounting holes closed on the later model ball joint and grind it to fit the earlier upper control arm, then I would re-drill the holes to match the earlier control arm and use the more available later model '63 ball joints from now on. If that's not possible, then I would check the mounting stud diameter and center-to-center width of the '63 upper control arm as well as the ball joint diameter, and if that matched up I would just get a brand new '63 upper control arm from Moog and install it, even if I had to get the special cone-shaped drill to oversize the ball joint hole on the original '62 steering arms. In other words, I would try to use the '63 stuff on the '62 if I could because the parts are more readily available. Nice job on your Falcon in this video.

Love seeing a young generation still in love with the pass. Sir, you’re so talented wish you were near so you could get my 62 falcon running again.

What a surprise when you took the fenders, bumper, and almost the entire front end off to paint the wheel wells. I loved the results though, nice and shiny!

Thank You very much !!

Incredible sweat equity journey on your wife's Falcon! There are always a few surprises waiting for you on suspension work when you have a 50-60 year old car...you solved the riddles and the Falcon looks great. Thanks for your time!

Very cool to see the Falcon back as “new”! Great work!

Nice work! I am doing a 62' now , shock tower delete, ifs , with rack n pinion set up.

Nice job, looking good!😎

Nice work! I have a 1964 futura, and love the old Falcons. You earned a new subscriber as well.

Excellent work Omar 👏 it looks like a lot of fun work and I'm pretty sure your girl is so happy that is done 😎👍

Lots of work but the results made up for it. Great job.

You did an incredible thorough job. Nice work!!!

Inspirador trabajo!!!..congratulations!!!! I love the falcon 1962

Great video on the Ford Falcon!

Great job! Great video!

Great video. I am about to do the same on my 1962 Falcon!

I'm a big fan of POR. I've done full undersides with it. Must be a huge difference in driving and steering that machine now. Some serious age and wear. That rubber was toast LOL.

Nice! Glad it is working as you plan. Also, as yourself, my 1963 Ford Falcon I am working on will belong to the wife. Will attach some photos later on. Good work to both of you.

Nice ride

really great job and video. I did the same job on my 64 T-Bird last summer and as you know it is a bear. now I need to pull the 390 for a rebuild. enjoy your journeys

Looks great man, I just did this for my wife's Maverick. If you used roller spring perches you wouldn't have had to fight the shocks going in.

My 1st car was a1960 Falcon neighor sold it to me for $1.00, yes a dollar because I took care of his lawn for a summer , that was 1968

Man!! Loved the video. I need to do this to my ford as well. Thnx 😅

Nice job. My 62 Comet is pretty much the same. I gave up on removing the factory coating on the inner wheel well. Man that was on there good. Great video, the POR 150is🥒

You installed your spring perches backwards. Might be why you had trouble installing the shock. This will make the car ride stiffer and shorten the life of the spring perch as the rubber is always in a bind now. The side of the perch with the coil spring stop should go to the inside, not the outside.

Wow Great Video!!!!

Love it!

Meant to say POR 15 is amazing

My 63 Ford falcon was taken from me when someone ran a stop sign and I T-Boned them going 45. It hurts me to see how beautiful my car could have been. I did a lot of work to it, but never got to replace the floor pan and paint the body.

love it, reminds me of my 61 i bought about year ago. i need to replace floor pan in it, i have a brand new floor pan. just lazy.

Omar the 65-66 Mustang Shock towers/mounts look to be the same, the rest of the suspension for 65-68 looks the same as the falcon's but that is really no Suprise as the Mustang is based on the Falcon/Comet. IIRC this applies to the rear also.

Omar, That was nice work. You handled all those guaranteed unexpected issues really well. But you didn't paint the brake hubs, Bro. Hey, just kidding. I know you were probably pressed for time! It was really good to see you putting out a video on this sweet falcon.

Great job on the Falcon. Thought you might have upgraded to front disc brakes.

I recently did my suspension on my 62 Fairlane. Everything was replaced. Wow, you're right it's a task to find things, but it's complete. I had to drill out my uppers and weld to fit those upper ball joints. Replace a blown out control arm and a steering knuckle. I ended up with an extra NOS knuckle for a '62 falcon (passenger side) if you need it. You can also have your center link remanufactured much cheaper than replacing it. Good work brother! Where in CA are you?

Great work on this car. Thank you for posting the video. Sub +1

I also have the chrome horn / center cap in decent condition (by accident, parts right?) for that car if you need it.

I'm a 62 model myself, and all of my suspension parts are worn the F*** out so if you see any knee or shoulder parts in that box fill me in brother!

Are the rear shocks upside down?

Looks pretty great! I heard somewhere that POR15 is susceptible to UV rays. Does something to it so it doesn't last as long or something and needed to be top coated if its in the sunlight? Is that true or just some negative chirp? I think that stuff looks killer.

I have a silly question: I subscribed to your channnel only two days ago and I have watched nearly 80% of all your viedeos. I did not see how this car came to your place. Did I miss something? This car is small and practical for a lady. As my wife is getting older, she prefers to drive our modern daily beaters. At least my daughter is enjoying my vintage cars. Maybe I will let her use my 63 Corvair Monza as a daily driver once it is finally finished and has passed ou stupidly strict inspections.

when are we getting a Galaxie video???
