1979-1993 Fox Body Mustang SVE Tubular Radiator Support - Review & Install

Replace the bent or compromised factory radiator support in your 1979-1993 Fox Body Mustang with this lightweight tubular radiator support from SVE. Each support is designed and built to completely replace the lower portion of your factory radiator support which reduces front end weight. The SVE Tubular Support is constructed from mandrel-bent 1" DOM steel tubing with a .090" wall thickness, and precision-bent to give the radiator the proper mounting location and height. Radiator support mounting brackets are preinstalled to save time in measuring the locations of the factory support. All the brackets and mounting plates have been fully tig welded for strength and structural rigidity. SVE's radiator support arrives in a bare, raw steel finish that's ready to be welded in place. Finish it off in your car's specific paint color, or an E-coat.

Mine was definitely all boogered up and this would have been perfect. I gotta get back into the foxbody game

[musclecargarage]

I had to use 1 of for my 2.3 ecoboost swap out of a 2017 mustang

On the original core support the bumper cover attaches to the bottom with screws or bolts are there mounting points for this on the SVE?

[fishyk]

Disappointed you did not choose a factory car to show the installation on. Add ac mounts and you will be on top of the competition.

I believe you guys sell everything for these platforms except for the bodies themselves. Perhaps when these are all rotted away, you will provide these as well.
