Classic Mustangs can get a lot of things done, but really hard, modern driving causes a few design flaws to show themselves. Here we discuss how to set up a nice brace to keep such from happening. (http://www.mustangmonthly.com/techarticles/mump_1108_how_to_shock_supports_install_a_tcp_expo rt_brace/index.html)By the very nature of their unitized construction, classic Mustang bodies are pretty solid as grocery getters and weekend cruisers. However, when we put them to the test with hard driving, vintage Mustangs struggle with design weaknesses. The shock towers need all the structural support they can get, which is why Ford installed export braces on Mustangs headed for rough roads outside the United States. Carroll Shelby understood the benefits of export braces and installed them on his GT350s and GT500s as an important factory mod.
