Anybody have any info on how this is done? Been researching for 3 days and can't find anything useful. Thanks, JerryM

What all do you need to do? You can notch the shock towers by cutting out the section that interferes and welding in a C-channel to get the clearance. Match the tower thickness with the C-channel. You could also create a V with two plates instead of a C. I wouldn't go too far into the tower, you could hit the spring, and you start creating a bending moment between the top and bottom of the C and the rest of the tower because the deeper the notch the greater the effective lever is. But if you need an inch or so I wouldn't worry about it.

I think Mustang Steve did a write up when he did the mod on his car after building a marking/layout jig.
3 days of searching?

I just now moved that link to the TIPS & HOW_TO section, but left a redirect link. This way it will be easier to find in the future,
REMEMBER!!! When posting a question about your Mustang or other Ford on this forum, BE SURE to tell us what it is, what year, engine, etc so we have enough information to go on. |
