I am considering upgrading to a better front suspension. I currently have flaming river rack and pinion with steering column.
Everything else is stock.I was looking at TCP or Global West. Any recommendations on the products or who to deal with? 1969 Mach 1 428

I'm going with TCP for two reasons. They're made at Chris Alston's Chassisworks which is only 30 miles from me, and their new strut rod pivot setup is trick. I have the upper control arms and the strut rods already, I'm just waiting for the lower arms. They tell me those have been redesigned as well. They should be ready by the end of next week. I completely rebuilt the front suspension 5K miles ago using stock type replacement parts (from a Mustang vendor) but having broken a strut rod and three balls joints being sloppy, those peices scare me to death.  ------------------

that stuff is expensive, quality name brand parts and should work as expected. Ive been lookin at the street/strip setup. not just for the weight savings but for the strait line stability and tons of shock tower clearance.
