1st up in the TCP g-bar install.

Toughest part of the job was removing the stock leaf springs that were rusted together at the from bolt holes.



some pics of the install:

Getting the rear end from TCP is a little more expensive then going with a Currie 9" heavy duty housing and 31 spline axles so we purchased the currie 9" and order the GIG from TCP for bracket placement and welded up the mounts.

next step is installing the g-bar link that is mounted to the pre existing shock mounts



lso if you have ever had air shocks on your mustang there is a good chance of having the supports where the shock mounts on top will be cracked. We had to grind and re-weld them on this mustang as well.
