Couple questions
1) Does the TCI kit alter the track width from stock at all?
2) TCI uses mustang two spindles - will these work with my baer brake 14" pro plus brakes? (they are currently mounted with the baer supplied brackets on stock 68 mustang drum spindles)
3) Are there any companies that make aftermarket spindles that are compatible with baer brakes?
Any other things to consider for this type of a suspension swap?
Thanks for the help

TCI does not use a Mustang II spindle on their 64-70 Mustang IFS. It is a custom piece. Baer makes a caliper adapter to work with the spindle.
The track width is 58.25" on the TCI kit. I've never been able to find a definitive answer to what the stock track width is on the early Mustangs. I have seen varying information but they all said the early ones were skinnier than the later models.
We have ordered engine mounts for a 5.0 Coyote to verify they are the same as the 4.6. The drawings appear to be the same mounting so we are hopeful the existing mod motor mounts will cross over.
