Re: C4 vs Crown Vic

Everything I have seen with Crown Vic suspension has the wheels out way too wide for the vehicle. Then you have to use real ugly wheels to get them close to fitting under the fenders.

Your call, do you want to run ugly wheels so you can use a cheap worn out cop car suspension ?

The first Crown vic install I saw was in a 60's F100 with a 4BT diesel in it. He had a real issue with the wheel fitment with it.

They work if you have a 70 something F100 or F150 that you want to make low but if you get away from The F series fords you have to do some cobbling to get them to fit most anythign else.
