We also finished up all of the fixturing for our 2 new Fast Track Mustang front suspensions. I will have more info posted shortly in our Vendor Specific Thread section.

On your mustang setup, does that keep a 5x4.5" lug pattern?

Trucks are posting numbers, can I assume partially due to weight and weight bias?

The weight bias is actually a disadvantage. We ended up adding almost 200 lbs and a larger gas tank to the back of the truck in order to get closer to a 50/50 weight distribution. The truck tips the scales around 3,600 lbs so it is no lightweight.

I think the enormous tires under it would be one of the main factors.

They are wide vehicles to begin with so there is a lot of room for tires. We are running a 345 front and rear with out any body mods (except for mini tubs and removing the inner fenders.

Love yalls work by the way!

Thanks for the info, but I don't think they will offer the tire clearance that we need. We will eventually fab something for the truck when time allows.

All of the Ford products are available with the hubs re-drilled to 5x4.5" bolt pattern for an additional $200

Hey RS, will you guys be starting a build thread for the 75 firebird? Looks to be another amazing build!

I'll get some updates together after the weekend of some of the new builds and some more custom chassis projects. :thumbsup:

The Pantera was brought from another shop north of us. We will be doing the chassis and then it goes back to the other shop to get wrapped up. It's just a really cool car to see in amongst the other vehicles we have at the shop.

Awesome work as always guys you just keep coming out with cool stuff that it over the top. Really like some of the frame designs. Keep it up
