Description
The Heidts Mustang II IFS System is a high-performance upgrade designed for the 1960–1965 Ford Falcon and Ranchero. This kit replaces the restrictive factory shock tower suspension, which is often the primary obstacle for engine swaps and precision handling. By installing this system, owners gain significant engine bay room and the modern driving dynamics of an independent front end.
Performance and Stance
Modern Geometry: Designed to provide a contemporary driving feel, this system offers vastly improved steering response and stability over the original Falcon steering box and linkage.
Aggressive Stance: This kit comes standard with 2-inch dropped spindles, providing a lowered profile while maintaining proper suspension travel and geometry.
Adjustable Ride: Depending on your chosen configuration, the kit includes either stock-style shocks and springs or high-performance billet coil-overs, allowing you to fine-tune the stiffness and height of the front end.
Engineering and Clearance
Engine Bay Expansion: A major benefit for Falcon owners is the removal of the bulky factory shock towers. This provides the necessary clearance to easily install larger engines, such as 351 Windsors or modern Coyote powerplants.
Custom Control Arms: The kit features tubular control arms available in stock or narrowed widths. Narrowed arms are frequently used by builders to tuck wider tires under the Falcon's relatively tight front fenders.
Steering Options: Includes a manual rack and pinion as standard, with a power rack upgrade available for those seeking easier low-speed maneuverability.
Kit Includes:
Crossmember: Heavy-duty weld-in unit engineered for the Falcon/Ranchero chassis.
Control Arms: Tubular upper and lower arms (Stock or Narrowed).
Spindles: 2-inch dropped spindles included as standard.
