Default Hey Ford Guys!! 1969 Mustang Fastback suspension suggestions??

Anyone have any good, or bad, feedback on Ford suspension upgrades?
Looking to run an IFS kit such as TCI, Heidts or upgrade the existing front system. Also want to run mini-tubs and a 4-link type setup on the rear.
I looked over the Maier Racing site- didn't see much.

Just curious what works, and what's been used around here. Not really ready to go full frame Morrisson or Schwartz.....

A liitle help from the Ford guys, please!

Also- anyone have any feedback for a '67 Fairlane front suspension swap and/or upgrade? Seems like Ford's are aplenty right now.

THANKS!!

Have a look at Total Control Products and include the shelby drop into the upgrade with the upper control arms.

Hey Jason,

If your looking for bang for your buck try streetortrack.com & opentrackerracingproducts.com

On the higher end ridetech.com has a nice coilover set up for the 69. Also DSE has Ford products coming out very soon.

I do know that they are working on early Mustang stuff, but don't know an ETA. "Very Soon" may be a bit of an aggressive statement, but you could always get in touch with them to ask.

Not to push the question back to you, but the intended use of the car offers a lot in the way of choosing a package that will meet the needs.
