Yes, I've seen the Mustang II rack and pinion setup adapted for 65-68
Mustangs, and guess what... It will work, But You have to heavily butcher the
shock towers on both Mustang chasis styles (66,68) to make the conversion
work, but it does work very well. I've seen it done on alot of cars.

<< Hey all,

I had a guy tell me I can convert my 65 coupe to a rack and pinion setup
quite inexpensively. I know about the conversion from Total Control
Products, but it is $1500 for the power version. He said I could use a unit
off of a Mustang II. Anyone have experience with this? Is it a fairly easy
conversion? I just met this guy, so I am not sure if he really knows what
he is doing, or just blowing smoke. Thanks!

And something tells me that this will require extensive body work and
welding knowledge. Neither of which I posess. Oh well, maybe some time
later. Thanks!
