For the guys with the 71-73's, what do they do for better handling? I know for the older stangs they have the weld in R/P IFS.

 

You can get a strut type suspension for 71-73, if that's what you mean by IFS.
The Mach1 suspension is already pretty good though, mine takes the corners quite flat.

Rack/pinion steering is another story though. Nobody makes a kit yet so you'll have to
make a custom.

 

All Mustang front suspension is Independent Front Suspension.

 

I used the wrong terms. I'm referring to the suspension kits like seen here and in the mustang kts sold in the ford magazines.



My last 71 was a nightmare when it came to suspension performance even with urethane bushings. Now that I'm planing to buy another one, I'm trying to figure out the build first and what my options are.

 

RRS makes a kit that uses sn95 struts and cobra brakes etc

 

I don't think I'd feel comfortable ordering from an overseas company. Has anyone here in America used their kits and ordered from them?

 

iirc a the 40th show they had a display setup and the aussies are serious about the classic mustangs

id like to have this

make my stang RHD for the lulz :P

 

It just doesn't seem worth it unless you can get R & P too.
All the rack & pinion kits don't fit the 71-73 years, including RRS.

 

I used to talk to the guy/gal at Dark Horse Racing all the time about the mods they had done and they said it was way to advanced of a mod for me to undertake back then. I figured by now someone would have came up with something. ( This is partly why I never focused on my old 71 to be my primary project and DD. This is disappointing. Well, I guess I'll see what deals come my way and see what I end up with.

 

Autoworks in San Diego carries the RRS for 71-73 and swears by them. Here is a link http://www.autoworksparts.com/rrs_front_coilovers.htm
