Sounds like a cool project. What about suspension?

 

What engine are you turboing? How much boost are you planning on running?

 

Don't run a road armor style bumper with no lift. It will look out of place IMO.

 

mothman999,
im doing on spindles and blockes right now, then later i might go bags

elementsenjoi,
im turboing the 2.3 that is in my truck, im going to run 8 to 10 to be on the safe side,

 

sounds like a good project to me! what is the truck going to be mostly used for after? (street truck, off road, ect)

 

street truck. dd/show

 

If you need some help with the Mustang dash, let me know. I've got one in one of my trucks, and another to go in the other.

 

sounds cool.. did you start the project yet????
