    Yup, I can't even remember how many IFS kits I have sold and or installed over the years, not one breakage issue on any of them..... And one of them was on my '66 Mustang that had a tendency to go wheels up (about a foot) whenever "somebody" wanted to show off a bit in first round of time trials at the drag strip.... Then I'd move the 4 bar back where it belonged and go fast again......

    Who Me???? Naw, that thing is going to Bonneville should I ever get it done.... However I do have this set of 6.33 gears, some slicks on 15 X10 wheels, and there is this 1/8th mile drag strip in Iowa by Erik's house and........ Man, I'm really hopeless, ain't I????? Just an incurable go-fast guy, I guess!!!!

    You'll never break well built tubular A arms from a reputable mfr with that combo unless you stop real fast, like up against a 36" diameter oak tree
