Suspension upgrades for \'63

Having a difficult time finding any bolt on front suspension upgrades for my '63 Fairlane. TCP bushings asside and larger diamter front sway bar, can't find much that would help me improve handling. Even front shock options are limited. Anyone have any suggestions??[img]/forums/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif[/img]

Same problem for my 64. Besides the mustang II kit the only thing that I have seen is by RRS. They have a bolt in rack and pinion kit and a strut / disc conversion. Both look good. My problem is that I was shopping for an "improvment" not a $4000 replacment set up.

I called global west and tcp to confirm that nothing they have will work. One guy said its because fairlanes have a weird lower control arm that is special for our type or car.

Hear what you are sayin' about the lower control arm...Saw the RRS setup and it is a bit rich for my blood too. Even the rack and pinion set up is a bit too expensive...oh well!

I know Quickor is back in business again. You could look at some of coil over shocks setups one might fit .
