Default AJE racing front suspension install on a 67 mustang

We (CPRstreetmachines) will be installing AJE racing's tubular K-member, A-arm, Coil over kit front suspension on our 1967 turbocharged mustang. We will be able to notch out the shock towers, add rack and pinion, upgrade to cobra disc brakes, have a bolt in K-Member like the new mustangs, adjustable coil over struts and much more room in the engine bay for the existing turbo kit. ;D

Very nice car to be hacking up. I know your not "hacking", but it is all finsihed looking to me, and it will have to be messed with again to get it into a better setup. That will be sweet when it's all finished up. Looks like just the right shock tower notched, why not both?

The complete kit is just under 2500. Which to me is better and more completethan any other company. Comes with a rack of your choice, pinto or fox(P/S or not on the fox), spring rate and powder coat color. It uses a lower single A-arm without the strut rod. So the tire moves like it's designed rather than where the strut rod tells it to go.
We have to hurry, have a show to go to in 2 weeks.
The shock towers is notched on one side for them to show you don't have to notch the towers, but you can.

He stated in the magazine article that he will never be finished.

I am sold initially on this kit...but I want to know how its going to perform. This seems like a cheap price for every thing that you get, or am I off on that. Best of luck!!!

We've installed it on a few cars and love it. when you drive someone else's that had R&P, driving your own that doesn't have it gets frustrating when you know what your missing. We'll show the ins and outs.
The only thing you need to buy is brakes, and depending on the kind you want, determines the spindles you pick. We wanted 13in Cobra rotors.[8D] The SN95 spindle is much easier to adapt stock style brakes, but cost 100 bucks more for that option. BUt worth it when we scrounged around on craiglist and local boards to find stuff used, cheap.

Wow that is a good price when considering what some of the other suspension and steering setups cost. TCP's setup would be twice that. Too bad it is not more bolt on. I have a real hang up doing mods to my classic that cannot be undone very easily.
