[Bryce]

Check out my build. i built my own torque arm rear suspension on my regal.

Will do. Do you have a link?

Here is the video with the flip camera mounted under the car. sorry that its upside down.

Simply awsome build! If my 63 comet turns out half as good as this car I'll be happy

Thank you for the compliment. I hope my car performs half as good as it should.

Benjamin,

I am working on it now. I have upgraded to a newer version and could not open the previous file. So I have to input the dimension again then I can send you results.

Awesome! Thanks! I'm in touch with the director of NASA about the future legality of my car for NASA's PT series.. so I should be able to really push it when I get it all done..

WOW! great news. I will have this all done and finalized on Monday.

Fantastic! Is that both set-ups or just the stock?

Actually only the Manned spacecraft section got shut down.. So If I convert it all to drive by wire and drive it with my iPod touch it will be considered a "remote vehicle" and it will still qualify. ;)

HA

I got some 275s for the durango, all four corners. and some 275s for my dads truck, all four corners.

No new wheels, but I can hope.

I should have both done.

I was bored last night and wanted to play in the garage. I lowered the Falcon another 2" in the front. Most of the front tire is tucked under the fender. I lowered the back 3/4". No rubbing on the first test drive. So that was promising. It looks a little bit better. I will take a picture tonight.

[LowFast]

Excited to see the "dropped" pics. Especially with the 17" wheels

[wellis77]

Awesome! If there is one thing I would change about your Falcon it would be ride height. That little car needs to set down low, IMO. Looking forward to pics.

Here you go!





The top of of the front fender is 34.5" rear fender is at 36.5"
The fender lip is at 23.3"
roof is currently at 52.5

the headers are about 3" off the ground. Frame rail is 6.25" off the ground.

This is as low as a falcon can go with stock spindles the LCA is now parallel to the ground.

[linkstar69]

I like the stance, purposeful rather than slammed for visual impact. Great build btw I've taken a lot away from it to apply to the design elements in my own project.

[wellis77]

That looks good Bryce! Too bad the headers are so close to the ground now, another inch would be money. I definitely like the lowered look though, especially how the quarter tucks the wheel. That's something I really dig on my Dart too.
