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

[gearheadgarage]

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!!

Talk to Blake at SpeedTech about using there Torque Arm rear as they have just completed one at there shop.

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.

I talked with DSE yesterday. They've got some great products on the way from what Stacy could divulge. They have been aiming for a release around the beginning of the new year, and every time I have bugged them about it, they've told me that development is on track.

There are actually a variety of options out there, but it depends on how much you want to spend. The Roadster Shop will make you a front weld in clip, as will Morrison, if you don't want to go full frame. If you want a high end bolt in/weld in front suspension, JME, Griggs Racing and Agent 47 install relatively easily, but again, they aren't cheap either.

Cool - I hadn't asked too much about the timing. I can't wait to see what their solution is.

Total control makes some good pieces. More of a bolt on upgrade type of deal if that is what your looking for.

Something to take into consideration is motor you are running or might be swapping in later , as a mod motor or coyote swap would need stock inner fenders/shock towers removed, just my .02
