Can you give us a quick run down on the pros/cons of the subframe. What else is required. Rack and pinion? Spindles?

Thanks

Hmm I don't think I've seen your subframe before. So yours comes with steering arms and the sway bar and ends?

I have a C5 front suspension so I have control arms and knuckles and hubs. What steering rack is yours designed for?

The pro's #1 it works,#2You use up to a 11 wide wheel,315 tire on 69 &70 camaros.#3 Lower cost,#4 my chassis come w/motor mounts,trans mount,and bolt on steering arms.Cons #1 it's not a DSE orAME. #2 Fabricated rails instead of bent or hydroforumed.You will need the following upper & lower C-5/C-6 a-arms,C-5/6 uprights & bearing hubs.A 79-93 fox bodied rack & pinion,15 inch long coil over's 550# spring SBC,LSX.650#springs BBC.I can send it complete and powder coated also but just adds to total cost and shipping is higher when it is a complete unit.I just shipped unit #19 to Cris G. at JCG Restorations on tues.I have owned my Welding and Machine Shop business since 1984.Built my first Corvette sub frame in 2004 using C-4 componets. When those componets got hard to find started using C-5 componets.I am in the process of finishing my 6th. complete PT. build right now. Thank's For looking.Scott

Just did a quick search and it looks like Mustang steering racks are pretty cheap so that's a definite plus. I don't know anything about fox body Mustangs though, do you have a recommendation for what year/trim level has a quick ratio?

Thanks

An ARG brand for 79-93 fox bodied mustang 15:1 or20:1 ratio's can be ordered from Jeg's for $249.99 includes tie rods. or a rebuilt unit are also avilable for around $130.00 plus core charges from local parts stores.I can supply brand in the box GM C-6 componets for $1,650.00.I cant buy the rack and pinion or coil overs any cheaper than my customers right now.Just trying to pass the savings.Thanks Scott
