| Well after many years of using stock parts for upgrading, I have now chosen to go with the Anthony Jones Engineering tubular cross member. I will be using the coil spring set up .
I have decided that the AJE tubular was what I was looking for.
1 was wondering if any of you guys had used this cross member, and what lower control arms you may have used, and what results were noted.
I have 80 Fairmont, 88 Mustang GT & 97 Mustang GT to choose from. I have not done the geometry measurements as of yet, but wanted to know how you guys may have fared-out.
I’m kinda leaning towards the 97 L/C/A’s as they will give a wider front track, I don’t know if this will push the front wheels out of centre of the wheel arches. Like I said, I have not done the physical measurements yet.
Any ideas…..

| You will not only have the wheels move out words but also forward too. Not a huge deal but you will need to watch your wheel and tire combo's. I have QA1 tubular k-member and A-arms, coil overs.....the works. I have '98 Mustang GT spindles, rotors, brakes, and sway bars. | |

| so guess i need to measure all the l/c/a's to find the dimemsions,kinda sucks, i wonder how far foward they will be. oh well we'll have to get the string guage out, i dont fancy wasting another set of ball joints. | |

| I have the QA1 crossmember also along with late Fox Mustang control arms. My 17x8 wheels still fit fine. | |

| late fox, could you be more specific, i have a set of 88 model L/C arms on my "parts storage "Mustang i wonder if they are the same.?? didnt they change around 1986.
i;m also wondering if shedding some weight from the frt end with the tubular k-member and since 'm also considering moving the battery to the trunk if this will give a sloppy frt suspension and a higher ride hieght.
haste makes waste, shoulda kept some stuff. | |

| I put 91 fox control arms on mine. As far as I could see they are exaclty the same as my stock zephyr control arms. Im almost positive that the control arms are the same on alll the fox mustangs. | |

| thanx for the info , now i can get on with making a screw-up on something else, im getting proficient at it!!!
dont know if any of you lads are up for an AJE k-member, but JEGS has a special running at the moment, purchase a AJE k-meber and recieve a 50 Bone rebate toward the next purchase of any AJE component, sales must be down or somethings up.
i got mine shipped to the house and when i opened it up, it looked like someone had tried to fit it, got frustrated and shipped it back.
got a replacement on the way. no hassles. good customer service, they even paid the return freight.
