Crown Vic Control Arm Brackets ?

Does any one have pics of the brackets they used/made for the lower control arm when you have done this swap ? I have the unit mounted, do I keep them on the angle they are on and make the brackets to fit ? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks ,Jeff

I have seen them built various ways on various threads. I suggest you use the search engine top o' this board's home page. Check out how others have done it. Plus at the top also check out Hio's compilation sticky. He's got more info in there than the Encyclopedia Britannica.

There was an ebay ad cited a couple of weeks ago with a "kit" that included hardware, sleeves, and pre-fabbed mounts.

i think the brackets can be ordered as service replacement parts but I assume you're looking for how to attach them to your frame, right? It should be self evident I suppose.

From my understanding, you have to maintain that 3/4" drop for the mounting.
