That is a good point. Unbolt that goofy bar and just install a factory unit with the proper bushings. Streetbeasts and CMC's were set-up for Mustang 2 front suspension. I would assume the strut rod would be from a M2. My old CMC had a factory original M2 front end on it before I swapped it all out.

If I had to guess, it also has a M2 rack as they were set-up for that also. I'm not an expert, but I believe the Pinto rack only has a single set of mounting whereas the M2 had the double set. Not 100% sure as I was never a M2 or Pinto fan.
