Nice build and Mustang products. Any chance you can post pictures of that Charger build that you have in the shop and I see in a few "background" pictures? :)

stuff looks great DSE i really like the front subframe can you tell me more about it specifically and what it takes to install one on a car/ Also what are you using for a rack and pinion?

I don't want to speak on their behalf, but I will offer what I think I know.

The Rack and Pinion is a DSE product that they designed and are having manufactured.

The basics of the installation are that - - I believe it is located off factory holes in the front rails, then holes are drilled and crush tubes (correct terminology?) are welded into the factory frame rails. The lower crossmember and upper mounts then bolt in. From what I see the installation looks very straight-forward for someone versed in this type of work.

My personal opinion here, but this is DSE's best work yet from an engineering perspective.

Probably best to call and talk to them, but I thought I'd give my $.02.

The factory tubular crossmember nut plates locates the cradle. There are a several crushtubes that have to be installed through the frame rails as well. The upper arm/shock support locates a reinforcing plate that gets welded to the frame rail. Basically that is it besides cutting out the towers. I talked with Ryan Mathews and DSE in house engineer that developed this kit at Columbus at length about the install. Fairly simple compared to other kits I have used. I may have missed some steps but those are the biggies.
