Description

RideTech 1961-65 Falcon TruTurn front suspension systems will bring your classic into the 21st century.

Designed to give your Falcon excellent handling along with a lifetime of enjoyment, the TruTurn System features optimized ball joint angles and the elimination of rubber bushings, ridding the system of bushing deflection and providing free suspension movement through the entire range of travel. The geometry has also been optimized for excellent handling, drivability, and minimal bump steer.

RideTech Falcon front suspension systems are available with pin spindles or hub spindles that offer the same geometry improvements as the pin style, but add the performance and simplicity of late model Mustang hubs and brakes. Choose the ideal kit for your Ford Falcon.

Additional notes:

* Bump steer reduced to less than 1/16 in.
* Complete steering upgrade includes: draglink, pitman arm, idler arm, and idler arm mount
* Zero to over 7 degrees of caster possible
* Hub spindle kit includes MuscleBar sway bar
* Can be used with RideTech's coilovers or Shockwaves
