Our Frame Kit is laser cut from 7-gauge steel plate, replicating the shape and dimensions of the original Chevy frame. Welded on a rail fixture to ensure proper shape, it is ground and sanded to prep for finishing. The kit includes a bolt-in lower radiator support to replace your rusted or missing original. The tubular steel bolt-together assembly does not require welding and includes bolt-in boxing plates to add strength to the frame, providing extra mounting options for the fuel tank and exhaust.

Upgrade your ride with our Mustang II Coil-Over Shocks for unmatched ride quality for the street and strip. Our Control Arms are designed to correspond with coil-over style springs and shocks and work with nearly any stock or aftermarket crossmember. Our Crossmember is a completely bolt-in solution, based on proven Mustang II geometry, complete with bolt-in boxing plates to reinforce the frame. Please note that welding may be required on some applications, and it is not for use with air ride.

Lowers the trucks ride height by 2 to 4 inches which is adjustable to your preference in height within that range allowing you to dial in the perfect stance.
