nice jack stands. i have the same ones.[sm=smiley20.gif]

is that what the currie 9" looks like? that thing looks totally alien to a regular 9......not to say it looks bad, i just thought all these like "new" rear ends were essentially remaufactured or refurbished 9" that would of come on classic stangs with a certain brands sticker on it to make it a "Currie" or whatever brand.

I have them installed on my car. http://www.midnightdsigns.com/Mustang/subframe.html
Bang for the buck, probably the single best mod you can do to your car to improve handling/stiffness.

can you give me a link from where you purchased these? or similar ones? id like ot get some! I have a question about it. What if it is welded in place in a garage, and the floor isnt level? Will the frame be tweaked unlevel if its welded in that spot? or sill the suspension compensate?-Jon

The write up had the link to Tinman Fab. that's where I got them.

Contact Day - he also fabricates them

and yes, they should be installed using an overhead rack with all 4 wheels sitting on a level surface.

Great photos. Check out the pictures in my my post because mine were installed differently. I wonder why? What do you think?

Yonco, be careful when you buy 71-73 frame stuff. There are a few places that try to sell you one size fits all. That don't work for the bigguns. I haven't ordered subframe connectors yet, but I've already had problems with Competition Engineering's product selection.

Thanks for the warning!!! IS it bad to fab any of this stuff yourself? Such as buy plate and pipe and weld it all together myself? -Jon
