BST BSSP Front Suspension Crossmember Steel Design

Description

Product Overview

The BST BSSP Suspension Crossmember is a front‑end reinforcement kit designed specifically for 1964‑1970 Ford Mustang and Mercury Cougar vehicles. Constructed from high‑grade steel, the crossmember offers superior strength and rigidity compared to the original OEM part. Finished in a durable painted coating, it resists corrosion and blends seamlessly with the vehicle’s factory styling. The kit includes all necessary brackets and hardware to mount the crossmember to either stock stamped control arms or aftermarket tubular arms, providing flexibility for a range of build preferences.

Usage

The steel construction tolerates the increased stresses of performance driving while maintaining a classic appearance.
