Yes, that was it. Thanks! Nice car. What aluminum block are you using?

Edit: Looks like it says Donovan.

I don't believe that my Dad's Lingenfelter car has had any suspension changes. It seems to handle like my regular 90 L98 car, although I have not pushed it very hard on curvy roads like I have mine.

Thank you.

Yes. 9" Ford with Detroit locker. Frame is stock, not mini tubed. You get a lot of space inside the fender without the IRS.

Here's a pic of the frame:

I also have a 9" in my 1992. If you don't mind what spring rate are you running in the rear.

Very cool!
