I don't think there is much of a difference in track width from the Chevy II to the Mustangs, Falcons, Mavericks etc. The challenge becomes the installation. Compared to being able to bolt on a front sub-frame, there will almost have to be some significant welding involved on the Ford front setups. I'm sure if they jump into Blue-Oval land that they will have some cool stuff.

It's hard to beat a '65 or '66 Fastback in my book too! I'm staying tuned!

I'm a bit disappointed that by the time I get around to building a Chevy II with their stuff, it'll be old news! That's OK though.

Hey Brandon, I'm working on it. A little bit Blue oval mixed with some bowtie ..lol

I'm building a Mopar and have their Quadralink for the rear. I still need to modify and install it, but when I was talking with them for width, lengths, details, etc. for my application I asked them about the Mopar market. They told me Mopar would not be in the near future but Ford applications would probably come first if the market showed enough interest.

Cris are you hinting at something? I own a 69 fb and have been bugging DSE for some time about this.

I have a customer that already has 2 other cars with DSE suspensions underneth them... Camaros.. but also has a 70 FB Mustang.. So I will be figuring a way to use existing DSE product to retro-fit on his Mustang.. I got a pretty good game plan so far..

The quadralink has been retrofitted to several non GM rides over the years. SICK FISH is one of them

Hey Cris it wil be interesting to see what you come up with for the front end. East Bay Muscle Cars adapted the qudralink to a Torino it looks pretty good.

Keep us posted.
