I have a 98-02 merc that needs a front doghouse and was wondering if the 92+/03+ vic/merc would be a direct bolt on since I'm having troubles finding 98-02. Its a street stock car so cant weld anything.
Also curious if any lincoln fenders/core supports would work

Get the 03 and up fenders. Little better then pre 98
Merc or vic will fit nice
Core support can be 2002 and older any make will fit

Quick question might have missed this. Building my first Mod weld car. WE still have to use factory style rear suspension and can convert from watts to the older style. Are you guys building your own setup in the high end cars or still using something like the ZTR setup

Mainly depends on the builder,we have built all the watts link kits we used but there are many vendors who offer nice bolt in packages as well.

I just bought the brackets for the uppers, will build the rest. I dont have my axle on hand or I probably would have tried to build a set. I will build the lowers that way any gm or 8.8 can bolt in

98-02 Front A-Arms and Spindles.. how is everyone using the new style arms with pre 98 spindles? Car is a 98-02 P71 that has the factory 16” wheels. 15” wheels won’t turn on the front so what is everyone doing to make this work?

Rules don’t allow for upper a arm swap... wanting to use old style spindles with new style a arms. I have everything matched up, other than upper A arms mounting to spindle.

Not really possible...Best just use the 98 spindle If your set on using the wishbone upper ball joint set up. I have ran them before and they held up. Will they know if you swapped uppers if everything is bolted in factory locations??

I have an 01 grand marquis that is getting fuel to the fuel rails but it's not sending it to the injectors. Any ideas of what's wrong? (Building for a street stock)

I'm thinking it's the security mode. Is there anyway to clear it?

I’ve tried for the life of me to stop the boxes bending. That is where my cars usually bend. Any advise? Can’t tilt or cold bend. I typically pull it down a little. I’ve even plated in front of boxes. Any advice would help.!
