Personally, I would also install heim joint adjustable strut rods, but like everything else...these things tend to snowball.

The 1″ spring perch move improves the motion ratio, adding another small upgrade to the ride quality and handling of a 60-70’s era Ford or Mercury. This photo shows the perch move on our 65 Mustang/Falcon/Comet roller upper arm with a double roller spring perch. Changing to a more favorable...

Nice! Thanks Pat. It's all I can do to keep from tracking this car. Especially when I look at all the Trans-Am mustangs from back in '71.

I can only imagine the challenge of trying not to listen to the devil on your shoulder, pressuring you to track that thing.
