Welcome. Check out speedtech it looks like they just came out with a pretty nice one for the money unless you need a new old frame if so they do come up for sale on the site once once in a while. 1968 Firebirds rock! Good luck. Steve

Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

Welcome to the site.
Use the search function (Suspension section) and research thoroughly before you buy. Some subs correct the inherent geometery flaws, which is the most important factor. Others just look prettier, but don't address negative camber gain, caster adjustment, or bump steer (tubular arms, coil over shocks, and rack and pinion doesn't necessarily mean a much better handling system).Red Forman: "The Mustang's front end is problematic; get yourself a Firebird."

Are you looking for a GM or aftermarket subframe. Detroit Speed & Engineering is in your town. Have you tried them?
