i do relise that. im just waving all my options before i get something "built" for the car. i didn't know if there was a bolt in style front end like the one on the car. can you use a c5 style front end? is the track width enough to make it work? that question could probually be answered by a simple call to art morrison though.

[customcam]

thats what i would do + that could narrow it an inch or so to get a good tucked in wheel

[slownova]

very possible. maybe they will jump on here and answer a couple questions before i call.

Check out Griggs Racing Products.. I have used their stuff on the early Mustangs and it works really well. It also uses the late model brakes and steering components, so it leaves things open for alot of different brake choices. And you don't have to have the factory shock towers to use their stuff. They also make a K-member the is ready to accept a 4.6...

I was thinking the same thing. An MII spindle can be made to work if you have the latitude to modify the arms and mounting points.

I believe FATman Fab makes a tubular front clip

check out this page, it fits the 4.6 and it looks like a new firewall forward front end. looks costly though

a alingment issue that a few have tried to do with no change, goes thru bushings on the right upper a arm, for some odd reason the bushings on the lower part of the shockwave keep pushing out, its basictly a pro street front clip. if i can make it work better with a a-arm swap or something id think about it, but im not going to re-work the mounts. owner of the car says hes sick of dealing with it, brought it to me, and wants it to out handle his 07 shelby. i can't say no!

thanks. i mentioned that on the first page. it looks like a nice piece, but i cant find any reviews on it?

I am not aware of any bolt on front clips. There is nothing to bolt to on a Mustang. You will lamost have to graft the front of a full frame into it, maybe from the forward edge of the rear rails forward?

I am thinking it has to be a Morrison frame?
