So our crossmember arrived from Stifflers last week. If you haven't heard of Stifflers, check out Stifflers Automotive and Suspension Products. Brian at Stifflers was great. He helped us decide which crossmember would fit the 3650 in the stock mounting location of of the fox. When the part arrived I was extremely please. The parts were top notch quality and look great. If you need help, definatly contact Brian, great guy. We fit the crossmember last weekend and it fits perfectly using a T5 mount on the T3650. Pics below, crossmember is a bit dirty, but you get the idea

What's the deal with that hydroboost? And you car looks like mine right. Passenger fender is off while i tuck my harness. And those rims you had on it must of been pretty popular in the 80's. I have 2 on the rear axle of mine

Hydro boost is for the brakes and all that good stuff. We are basically using EVERYTHING from the 04 except body and interior...think of it this way...its 2004 mustang with a 86 body and interior.

Far from done, but she runs, drives, stops and goes. Still have a lot of little things to button up like the interior. Here are a few pics. Will ad some vids later

Here are the vids. Please excuse the paint on the hood as I bought it that way a couple months ago and haven't sanded it yet. Has FR shortys, Pypes OR Xpipe and Mac Flowpaths dumped
