Plus I can always return the parts, just costs me some money in shipping. I spent the money and just went ahead and bought all the parts, because there's no way to get the type of look I want with the little amount of room the stock length a-arms and fender clearance provides. It is a bit of a process and can cost quite a bit if you need to change wheels and play with the sway bar. A 7" would most likely fit maybe an 8", but that all depends on your backspacing.Īlso, you'll need adjustable caster camber plates for the top of your strut towers to get your alignment right (or close enough). I had 9" wheels narrowed down to about 6.5". I had 8" wheels before on the front with a 6+ inch backspacing and there's no way those will fit with the coilovers. In theory, you're only problems lie in the sway bar and tire clearance from the tire to coilovers. I'm going to be using '94 to '95 spindles with bumpsteer (because I'll be lowering the car quite a bit). I had just planned on running no sway bar in the front. there could be a possibility of making your own mounts on the a-arms, but I haven't got into that yet. Honestly I've been around the whole sway bar problem too. I went with the 1" shorter a-arms and coilovers like you are looking at from UPR. I also didn't have any problems bolting the stock a-arms to the k-member. the k-member I got bolted right up to the factory mounts in the frame, had to egg out the back holes in the k-member a little, but it wasn't a big deal at all. I have a PA racing k-member, I believe the year was '83 to '87 or '79 to '87, can't recall exactly. FYI there is no hardware included with the K, It says it comes with it in the You Tube video but on the website it clearly shows an option to buy it.
Getting the old K and arms etc out is pretty straight forward, do a web search on any how to's. Thanksĭoing the exact thing you are asking about. There were no instructions with the package they are on the Team Z website. I just dont want to buy parts that wont fit. Does the front clip of the car have the same mounting holes as the mustang? Any other thoughts on this set up? Has anyone tried this? Sorry for all the questions. I'm just not sure if the 90 GT sway bar will fit if the a arms are 1 inch shorter? Also will these tubular members bolt in the exact spot? I had trouble with my torque box kit, as the floor pan is slightly different in the fairmont. UPR sells these arms with and without the sway bar mount. The car will mostly be a weekend warrior. However I am concerned about no sway bar. It will help wheel clearance issues, as well of all of the benefits to using a tubular k member. Then I came across the UPR tubular k member kit, coil over with 1 inch shorter a arms. So I was going to use a 83 k member to keep the correct width. I was going to use a 90 k member but you guys educated on that.
