Hi All,

I've been doing some research and would seem the complete front suspension from a Crown Vic may offer everything I need; upper and lower wishbones, spindles with forward facing steering arms, steering rack in front of cross member, coil-over shocks etc.

Has anyone used this set up? Any pointers as I would probably need to narrow it a bit?

I use C4 Corvette suspension for a number of my builds with good results.  The parts are reasonably priced here and available.  

Good luck with your build. Nice start!

I've looked at the C4 front suspension and it looks like a really nice set up.

It seems like it's all aluminium, is that right? If it is do you think it will hold up an iron block LQ4 in a steel body? As the Corvette it was designed for is fibreglass so I'm guessing much lighter.

Many thanks.
