Hi Grover3. I have a 1989 LA Exotics that's had quite a few track type upgrades. I'm also running a narrowed 9" with 3.25 gears. I run 15" rims with Hoosier TDs for running open track events. Running 500+ HP and Hoosiers tends to put higher loads on parts than normal driving. I have a couple of items (amongst many) that you may be able to help me with:

1) How did you put coilovers on the rear suspension? I have the spring between the lower control arm and the frame, which is too short for coilovers. The shock is attached to a 1"x2" crossmember that wouldn't be able to support spring level loads. I'm also running spherical bearing lower and upper control arms.

2) I'd like to replace the rubber bushing front strut rods with spherical bearing rods. The problem is that I can not find them for Mustang II suspensions. I can custom make them, but prefer to get something already designed and fabbed for the loads.

Thanks..... John
