wow..... I wasn't here for the early early days, but I was here in 2003 or so.... sad to hear, so many good memories of good meets and farm parties and such... unfortunately I moved and lost touch with a bunch of you and then I ended up selling the DSM for a Mustang (which I still have) I am truly saddened by this unfortunate turn of events. It doesn't necessarily have to end, there is a website up north that seems to be gobbling up low volume web sites called Thechicagogarage.com you can talk to the guy that runs that joint screen name is Mook. and then I crossed over |

Good suggestions.... I really don't see any harm in having the "legacy" DSMcentral site falling under a new site as long as you can access it without going to the new site first or vise a versa. |

if you can't find one... just go to any autoparts store or an exhaust shop and buy a measured section of 3" pipe and start welding (or clamping if you prefer)... it's the DSM way I made a lot of my DSM parts when I ran my 93 GSX... and a lot of guys here make their own parts too. |

so it went under the knife this winter as I started out picking up some Koni Yellows and some H&R Super Race springs. Then the project got out of control with a BBK CAI system, Eaton Posi diff, Ford Racing aluminum drive shaft, Dyno Max CB, BBK long tube style off road H pipe, Cobra brakes, Cobra wheels, Addco 35mm solid front sway bar, energy swaybar links, new tie rod ends, 04 Cobra front control arms, Roush rear lower control arms, Heim joint upper rear control arms, Underdrive kit, smog removal, EGR removal, Cusco oil catch can (the only part left over from my GSX), MSD wires, Cap, Rotor, Coil and an Optima battery. |

OK guys, as sone of you knew I switched over from DSM's to Mustangs... and I picked up a 1995 Mustang GTS My GTS is Black with Grey interior. what is a GTS??? a GTS is a Mustang GT with zero options but with the ability to order as many options as desired. so essentially it can be as bare as a base v-6 or as fully loaded as a hardtop GT is capable of. Mine left detroit with: No A/C No ABS No Fog lamps Cloth Manual seats manual locks crank windows No spoiler and a 5 speed trans the dealer installed power locks and power windows the original owner kept the car till 02... and in 01 loaded it up with power leather from an 01, 01 GT Brakes and 01 Bullit wheels. the second owner kept it till 2008 and installed Borla side exits, south side lift bars, a used 4.10 and some lowering springs. I am the third owner... The project started small, but as some of you knew I tend to blow my budget everytime with my projects. it was supposed to be a rear diff rebuild, some springs and struts. it turned into much much more. keep reading for more. Picture as it was when I aquired it. |

I like the ones on the lower left too... I say keep the engine mild with a small reliable supercharger and spend more money on suspension and brakes... it always makes a car more fun to drive when you can make it handle good. |

I think you could probably find a used solid axle and 4 link stuff from a stock 79-04 GT pretty cheap... ***EDIT*** I must have already given the control arms away and do not have them anymore ***END EDIT*** The lift bars that you showed help for drag racing, but I thought you wanted a corner carver??? |

you should ditch the old leaf spring setup for a 4 or 5 link setup. |
