    Dont see many people keep it LB, looks good. Keep it between the ditches and keep on beating on it, glad to see some of the younger generation keeping the old rides out the junkyard and doing some hands on work.

  • @hvspeed6102
    @hvspeed6102 Před 4 lety

    Sweet truck, but I would make a suggestion. Have your buddy fab up an extra mount off the back side of the through bolt on the lower control arms. Mustang II front ends are pretty stout, but that is the weak link. Because that through bolt is in shear, and gets tremendous force under braking, and can snap that bolt. Just fab up a piece of plate, maybe 3/16, that welds to the frame and captures that bolt. If you want to see an example, check out “No Limit Engineering” as they use these on their auto cross chassis. It’s cheap insurance that could save a life. Enjoy!

    It likely feels tight in the seat but your driving videos still show the body rolling over in the turns. It still needs that sway bar.

    Neat truck. I hope a wheel and tire upgrade is in the works. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to spend all that time and money on suspension if you're still going to be running rock hard T-rated rubber. Sadly, there's just not much market for larger 15" performance tires.

    Just subscribed! As a die hard Ford guy I caved and just picked up a satin black ‘53 Chevy with 454/700/9” with great bones. I can’t wait to get the 9” narrowed, 4 link, and probably mustang 2 done! Any pics of the leafs in the back? Curious how he got it to sit so low?

      @David-82 Před 3 lety

      Yeah in the video he says he picked up the 4.8 LS with the Fitech, I understand someone else made the choice and he bought it. It just seems odd for someone to remove the factory fuel injection for a more primitive fuel injection system. But if you are going for the old school carb look all the power to ya.
