Great info in the video guys! Yes on the 4 link and a detailed video on shock tower removal and install welding. it up. Do we have to stitch weld or can we weld continuously without warping too bad is one question I would like to see answered. Thanks!!!!
@lostsocketgarage
@lostsocketgarage Күн бұрын
Really depends on the condition of the metal you are welding to. We weld hot with this, but that means shorter welds.

Really checking out your fastback conversion kits videos for a future build I'm contemplating. The Mustang II front components are great for all kinds of builds- I have the Mustang II spindles on my AC Cobra build with aftermarket control arms to the existing pick up points and it works great. One quick and crazy question- have you guys ever built a fast back conversion with an IRS rear- either 8.8 Mercury or Ford IRS or the later Mustang IRS set up? Any other ideas to make a conversion handle almost "track like" on the road? Also, what kind of issues come up with fast back conversion with mini tubs so I can run decent sized tires on the rear?
@lostsocketgarage
@lostsocketgarage Күн бұрын
We have used the Ridetech 4 link as well as a mustangs to fear watts link. I love em both. Depends on the style of mini tubs. Typically we get the kit from MTF. Pretty straightforward. But you'll need the fold down seat to weld in brackets for it.

Most bang for the buck and great fuel economy when not running 7's in stock form. It is ok keep on believing in chev power.

I love your channel. The amount of information that you guys give out for doing the fastback conversion is phenomenal. Last year I picked up a 67 coupe, California V8 car. No engine no tranny no front end no interior. Just a shell. But it has, zero rust and has never been wrecked. And I’ve contemplated doing the conversion. My question is, Does anyone that you know of have information on doing a conversion to a convertible?
