Hi all, its been a while since I last logged in. I have a 69 500XL and pretty soon will be looking to redo my front suspension. Trying to find some lower control arms but that's proven to be a challenge. Is anyone running a different front suspension setup other than stock?


Thanks

There's a pair of NOS control arms complete with ball joints and bushings listed on ebay that ends Sunday 3/16.

Check it out here; lower control arms
 
I have the TSB 25 supplement, which shows how to repair a 1965 selectair aka Integral Heater-Air conditioning System. It is in 15 pages of .pdf, the largest is 1,502 kb. Really some amazing detailed pictures and solutions. Too big to be uploaded here, the max allowed here is 19.5 kb . But maybe someone has some ideas.

I added link at bottom of page.

I had the ones he mentions first and also found them to be shorter than I wanted so did some research and found these and still have them on my car now. I put them on around 2015 approx. They are a T-mount style. I removed the T bar and put a new grommet in.

Air Shocks

I just wanted to share this for any one who is looking for air shocks for a 64 or older galaxie . I found a place that custom makes air shocks for anything A 1 auto the guys name is mark 970 513 8283 he had them made and shipped here to Canada in two weeks . They fit great I was using the ma 709 Monroe I found them to short and wouldn't get the car as high as I needed it also found the car rode like crap with the ma 709 s I know air shocks really isn't the answer I should be replacing the leaf springs but for now they will get me by
