    UCA Template - Shelby Drop

    Hey, boys and girls wondering if anyone has a UCA drop template I could borrow? Of course I'll be happy to pay shipping both ways

    Sorry I should explain myself. Upper control arm template. A fairly common upgrade to early Falcon and Mustang suspension is to lower the UCA to improve handling.

    If no one here has one, I'll buy one and then loan it out to who ever may want to do the same.
    Some good information here too

    There is a good right up on "Joes Falcon" about this. It looks like it would be a pretty straight forward job to make the tool. He has the dimensions there. Larry http://www.joesfalcon.com/page12.html
