cazxr2 Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 (edited) Hi all im looking for advice on how to lower the mustang. Any help would be great. Cheers Edited December 9, 2010 by cazxr2
Guest Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 Have you tried flipping the spindles over? If that won't work,you can cut the locating pin off of the spindle and glue it back on at a higher position on the spindle.
Jantrix Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 Lemme get this straight, you have roughly 24" wheels and want to lower the vehicle?
cazxr2 Posted December 9, 2010 Author Posted December 9, 2010 I just want to lower the front a bit. Maybe 2 scale inches. And I think the fronts are 22s with the rears 24s. I'm nit looking for it to be slammed on the floor. Just to tuck the front wheel in slightly.
Dr. Cranky Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 I think it will look great! Don't give up.
cazxr2 Posted December 9, 2010 Author Posted December 9, 2010 I think it will look great! Don't give up. Cheers I won't give up. I will find a way some how. Even if Ive got to cut have of the front end off I will find a way.
Kaleb Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 You could cut the part the wheel actually attaches to. Then cut an L shape into the back piece and attach it to the top of the piece you cut it off of. I have a 99 cobra I done it do, worked great.
torinobradley Posted December 10, 2010 Posted December 10, 2010 According to the picture, you also have to bring the tire in a couple of inches. There are too many factors involved to give you an easy answer. Do the tires actually fit between the fenders and fender liners? If not, you may need a thinner tire/wheel, trim that one or modify the inner fenders. If the tires fit under the fenders and chassis, it may be as simple as removing some of the mounting shaft on the wheels to pull them in. Raising the mounting point on the spindles is an easy way of dropping the car down but that too depends on how the kit is designed. Try the different suggestions and see which one works best for the application at hand. This is what kit-bashing is all about! Good luck and let us know how you did it!
diymirage Posted December 10, 2010 Posted December 10, 2010 if you really want a good anwser scan the instructions for the front suspension and that way we can tell you how to desing this
cazxr2 Posted December 11, 2010 Author Posted December 11, 2010 Got it lowered thanks e erbidy for there help. What I actually done was I took off the front wheels and the bits they were attached to and moved them up and glued them on top of the bracket instead of bottom. I will show pics later but here's where she sits now. And in progress lol
