Guzman ball joint set up??????
Hi, has anyone purchased yet one of Bill Guzman's F/E ball joint and coil-over set up? I'm dying to hear some feedback on it; by what I can see on his website, he's done a great job.......

I can't speak to his new suspension set up but I've purchased a couple of things from Bill and they were both superbly engineered and beautifully finished. If I were in the market for a new set up and Bill's front suspension kit is the same as the rest of the parts i received, I wouldn't hesitate to buy it and install.

Re: Guzman ball joint set up??????
Bill has always been conscientious with his products meeting DOT approval; at least, since last that I've spoken with him, he was trying to get it certified for road use. That could make it a lot easier to deal with the insurance company if someone is ever involved in a serious accident. Then again, modifying these little cars bring a lot of attention at your local state safety inspection; it has been my fear since I started on my conversion and being a resident in the state of Virginia.

Re: Guzman ball joint set up??????
I purchased both the front end assembly and a 4 point rear end from Bill. I've view the construction and geometry of the unit and it's superbly made and designed!! I'll be doing my own powdercoating of the assemblies.
He's built the front end to accomodate Ford 5.0 L motor mounts and the MG steering rack - WELL DONE!!! |
