Author Topic: 1965 to 1968 suspention difference bigstangs ¯ Member # 7920 posted                              What's the difference in the front suspension will an 65 work on an 68 Posts: 588 | From: san jose | Registered: Sep 2007  |  : 70mach351 ¯ Member # 7528 posted                              no i believe the contral arms are different offsets for the ball joints. 64-66 are the same. 67-70 are the same, with the exception of the 70 spindles which hold a bigger bearing. -------------------- 70 Mach 1 gettin a make over 2001 Ford F250 Crew Cab 7.3 Posts: 1762 | From: EDH | Registered: Mar 2007  |  : bigstangs ¯ Member # 7920 posted                              So will a global west tubular suspension from an 66 work on an 68 Posts: 588 | From: san jose | Registered: Sep 2007  |  : 70mach351 ¯ Member # 7528 posted                              I dont believe so, at least without a lot of modification. -------------------- 70 Mach 1 gettin a make over 2001 Ford F250 Crew Cab 7.3 Posts: 1762 | From: EDH | Registered: Mar 2007  |  : Secnd2nun64 ¯ Member # 1431 posted                              64-66 use shims on the upper control arms while 67+ use eccentrics. Probably some other differences too since the 67 is a differnt chassis. Posts: 1460 | From: CA | Registered: Jun 2002  |  :
