Hey there from Prince George B.C. Canada, I'm a new guy round here and am doing some planning before tearin into my '57 Ranchero once the snow melts. I'm lookin for thoughts on front suspension ideas for it. I would like rack and pinon steering, good handling, and modern (read effective) brakes. I was going to do some measuring and see how a Crown Vic setup lines up but I remember reading somewhere its not a good fit. The plan is for the car to be a regular driver and some spirited cornering is likely to be a significant part of that. The plan is for a built Y Block and a 6 speed.

Steve explained that way better than I could, and managed to find the picture I sent him that I couldn’t. The credit for that mod goes to Steve, and a couple of very serious and experienced vintage racing guys. It did make an amazing difference in cornering, and really brings the front end to near the level of the tri 4 bar in the rear.
