Mustang II under '37 Buick Raadmaster
After looking at all the options, I'm considering using a Heidts Mustang II under the front of my '37 Roadmaster. Want to build a good driver that handles well and safe.
I've read about Ackerman angles and do not understand how a Mustang II suspension can work well under cars with both short and long wheelbases.
My car has stock dimensions of:
Wheelbase - 131"
Front track - 58.3
Rear track - 59.25
1) Do Mustang II suspensions have adjustements that allow for different length vehicles?
2) Has anyone out there installed a Mustang II on a similar size car?
3) If so, did it handle well and have no tire wear issues?
Thanks

Dimensions of Mustang II control arms
Can anyone provide some dimensions for a set of stock or tubular Mustang II upper and lower control arms?
These would be the A-shaped lower control arm (no-strut design).
I would hope to use a strut rod in addition for added strength.
It's a long shot, but I'm exploring the option of using them with my Buick cross member and springs.
If you can furnish dimensions A, B, & C for a lower arm, that would help.
If you can furnish diemensions A & C for and upper arm, that would help.
See the attached sketch.
Thanks for your help.
