Hello, Well I finally found a K Member that was not expensive and not too far away. It is from a 94 Mustang Cobra and I got it off ebay. It came with the lower control arms as well so I am happy about that. I will have to replace the ball joints to be safe but I got it here. Here are the pictures off of ebay.   It did not come with the sway bar though. Nick |

I'm very interested as to how this project turns out. It's a bigger project than I would tackle but a lot of people will want to know how it works out for you.

Once it's cleaned up................we can pull the drive train and start to install the Cobra K - member. If I get my new welder...........we can add some braces and sub frame connectors.

Hello, Yeah it is going to be a big project, but it is about time I start doing something about this car. I am tired of it sitting and since I got rid of my Thunderbird I miss something that has a good kick when I step on it. My only problem is deciding on what I want to do with it, well that and money  . But that should not be too bad. The worst part will be trying to find parts that I can afford. But I think I will start a thread about the entire build in here so that I can keep track of things. On another note, I think it is about time that Mustangs start to become parts for Granada's and not the other way around. Nick |

Nick It's actually a fantasy of mine to find an original 1967-69 Mustang w/disc brakes (mint car) take out the drivetrain and put 'er on Ebay as a parts car.......sellling piece by piece since I bought for a parts car for my '76 Monarch...........if only I had the money!!! HAHA Can you imagine the hate mail I'd get? |

Hello, I would not hold that against you  . I cleaned up the lower control arms and a little bit on the K member. I had a problem with the K Member because there are inserts that seem to be sticking out. I did not notice that it should not be that way at first, so I will have to take care of that. I have some more parts coming so that I can get this stuff ready. But here are some pictures of what I have going.    Nick |

Hello,
Well apparently the problem that I thought I had is not actually a problem at all. I guess it is not designed to be all the way back in the k member because there would be nothing to mount the steering rack too. Guess I was worried about nothing. ;D

Were you able to find a 35MM/36mm sway bar yet?

It was like 1 and 5/16" and nope. Junkyard was tooooo hot the day I went and the car I was working on was in too much water so I gave up. Haven't gone back or checked any where else yet.
