You doing the work on the 3 link? I like those knuckles!

No, Gordon Bailiebilt has it. The more I considered doing it myself, the more I got confused. It’s not like the rear where you have real estate to work. Yes, Reid inner C’s and knuckles. Also swapping in RCV’s to gain steering degrees.

my question would be, did Dave share the pic or did Gordon?

is he tech savvy yet? lol

Actually, Gordon has stepped up to what he calls a "flat" phone now and he can send pictures.

I should be there one week from today to pick it up!

I can't believe it's been 3 years since I've posted on this thread. There's been a LOT of work done on this rig since then, and it's wheeled in multiple states since then also (Missouri, Oklahoma, Utah, New Mexico, North Carolina, Tennessee, South Carolina).

The new front suspension works amazing! I need to pay for contributor status again and upload some pictures.

I am actually replacing the motor this weekend. The existing motor is still good, and will be used in a different project, but I wanted more low end torque. I ended up building a junkyard Explorer 5.0. It's machined .030 over, torque cam, AFR heads, and GT40 intakes. I'll keep the existing Mustang EFI etc since it's already there.

I'll get some pictures up and weekend progress on the motor swap ;D
