Howdy Guys,
So about 3 years ago I redid my front end and bought everything from Rockauto.... first mistake. Everything is shot now and I'm looking at doing it right this time with better parts. Currently both sets of ball joints are shot on both sides. Center link is original. But tie rods I believe are still ok, but those I got from Oreillys. Haven't checked yet.
So my first question is, should I go to V8 steering components or should I stick with I6? Or does it even matter? Here's a few things to note if it matters:
•Using 68 Mustang disk spindles. If I stick with I6 steering I'm getting sleeves for the tie rods. I am aware of the possible bump steer. I have talked to and asked many people about it and I've yet to speak to someone who's had issues.
•I'm doing a Shelby 1" UCA drop. I already have the kit.
•Ordered a 1" sway bar with polyurethane bushings to replace the current small one.
•Considering slightly lower springs. What do you all recommend if I'm doing the 1" UCA drop? 1" or 2" drop? I do like the california dip kind of look. But not too crazy. Its still a daily. Just something a little different. Or should I just stay stock height?
Lemme know what you all think
Thanks,
Ryan
