Looking good! I got one of these im hoping to get back from the mechanic around spring. How does the vic clip do on air?

looks good. How close are the wheels to the fenders? most guys say the crown vic setup has a pretty wide track width.

thats a hand built setup based off mustang II geometry. But yea i remember the 79 being really wide after we swapped it.

The crown Vic crossmember isn't ideal for air. The track width is a lot wider than the stock F100, which will limit the wheels you can put on and still tuck. With that said, the stock CV wheels tuck on the F100. Second is the negative camber at full drop. I think a longer upper control arm and pivot points that are higher and further from the spindle would fix that.

I am willing to deal with all these flaws because of how much of the CV I'm using other than the front crossmember. I'll try to address some of these issues further down the line.
