Mustang II

[Blueovalz]

The Mustang II suspension design is not bad, and a fairly decent unequal length arm suspension. Adding the dropped upright will make it more compatible with a lowered chassis. With all the aftermarket support provided to this suspension, I don't see why you shouldn't be able to do everything you've listed. I am using the the C4 front uprights, so if you've considered fabricating tubular arms, then it wouldn't be much added work to use the early C4 front uprights anyway. They are nice aluminum pieces, and have the bearing assembly as a bolt-on assembly...very convenient compared to the Mustang II hub design. Lastly, the C4's later version had the upright increased in height by about an inch (the top half was extended), which gives some flexibility when looking at pick-up point locations on the main frame for your arms, but the later-model C4 upright probably would not fit inside of any wheel smaller than 17". My shorter early C4 will just barely fit a 15" wheel (barely).
