LOVE the car! I had a white 1990 GT with a Steeda 19 cam, Edelbrock heads and intake, Paxton supercharger and a full STEEDA suspension with 5-way Tokico's all around. I was stationed in Germany at the time and Car Craft was building their 200mph Mustang. That car was FUN on the autoban! I wonder what ever happened to that car? I sold it to two brothers in Ohio around 2005 after having it for 12-years.

Anyway, thanks for the memories... excited to see your build progress!

Good luck with the build. These cars and 3rd gen F-bodies are starting to regain a lot of popularity. It's fun to see them coming out again.

The SN95 Cobra IRS is pretty much a bolt in. It's not stupid expensive, but it is more expensive than the torque arm.

Yes, the Foxbody does come with a 4-link, but, like the GM A/G bodies, it's a converging link system, but, as the Foxbody arms are shorter, it's even more prone to binding, etc.

I think I'll go with the torque arm for now.
