      This project is completed. I'm putting up a link to a project video. It's just an overview. If there are questions, I'll try to answer and provide pics if needed. Thank you

      These are fast paced so as to not waste time. If there is something of interest, pausing may be necessary. They are an overview of what was done, not a complete view.

      I had a few things that I didn't like so I've been working while driving. I looked at dropping the front coil overs while I was almost finished but didn't like what I saw. My son sent me an email with a pic of a 72 that had been lowered with a combination of items. Lowering links were listed. After googling, I found a set for $30. That's very reasonable but I build most things. I do a little more research and find that those only clear stock crown vic wheels. If you have deeper back space, you're in trouble. I found a guy who builds everything like me who had made a set with a 3/4" offset for clearance. I bought some metal and went to work. The right side went well. The left side wouldn't clear the a-arm with the spring cup on the coil over. I solved this by cutting the links in half and changing the offset by 3/8" . Mission accomplished. The pics show the links , the clearance and the end result.
