SN95 Knucle on I-Beam ranger

[k1ll.coyne]

Hello everyone, I am curious if anyone has done any custom beams with SN95 Knucles + coilovers? The thought behind it was to eliminate the double/stacked ball joints on the I-Beam trucks so you can get more angle and a wider front track for drifting. Obviously you would need to make a custom strut tower/hanger replacement and custom Beams aswell. Just curious on if anyone else has thought of something like this and if you guys think this is even possible. Let me know what yall think. Obviously nothing is to scale in the picture.

I'll play ball. Why do this over just swapping the entire Mustang suspension in?

Well, on beams your angle is limited to the knuckle before it hits the beam. I was trying to think ways to get more angle out of a beam style suspension. But basically if you keep your radius arms and get a SN95 ball joint on a beam hypothetically as long as you could get a coilover mounted this should work. And to fully answer your question lowkey like having beams, and im poor and have no money. Mainly a cost thing, but even to fab up some new beams, and a coilover/strut tower conversion is gonna be at least a little expensive.

Steering angle or what angle are you wanting more of?
