you can also flip your factory bracket and drill a hole, if I remember correctly its a 5 min modification.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Even flipped, the stock brackets are a little too short.

I have an unused set as well.  I'm looking at CHE's for the rear end, so I'm not sure they'll still work for me or not.

Drewstang sold me the new set he had, cant really ask for anything more. Especially since chuck isn't making them at this moment.
