Huh?? Any idea why?

maybe the control arms are in the wrong location?

Is the wheelbase correct at zero caster?

buddies nova...his wheels sit dead center....?

I would look else where, I have not driven my car yet, but spent alot of time making mine stonger, welded in alot of metal. Very flimsy. Not very happy with workmanship or customer relations. The rack is a standard NAPA unit, hard to get answers about the suspension geometry. The body mounts in the middle are where I found it flexing alot. Made firewall down bars, and added support to the mount area. Also filled in where there are holes in main crossmember, trans mount holes completely wrong, made new brakets. Engine mounts were supposed to be in stock location, cut them out moved motor to stock location and made stronger mounts. Now the McLeod shifter for my TKO 600 is exactly in stock location. Moved sway bar forward about 1/4 in. forward so it did not hit coil overs. Wheels were centered in wells before I started any mods.

I'm Having Their Front And Rear Suspensions Set Ups Installed On My 68 Mystang Fastback Now And My Chassis Guys Loves Their Stuff. The Guys There Are Easy To Talk To And Seem To Have The Right Answers.
