Looking at your front and rear geometry it appears your A-arms would bolt right in ?? The rear sway bar is another story...........Are you providing any components for the 6000 series ( besides bodys )
I am not sure at all what parts of ours would fit on your car. Shelby changed the suspension many times on their cars over the years. However, if your car is CSX4017 then it is a very early car and I imagine our parts would work. We use bronze bushings and Teflon lined rod ends throughout the entire car. In theory, our parts should fit if their suspension was made to original specifications.

We have made differentials, steering components, and other parts over the years for Shelby.
