  • Power Steering Preserved – Original steering box stays put, keeping that authentic truck feel while your new Coyote delivers modern reliability.
  • Transmission Ready – Includes precision-built cross-member designed for both 6R80 and 10R80 automatic transmissions. One kit, multiple build paths.
  • Complete Hardware Package – Every bolt, bracket, and template included. We've done the engineering so you can focus on the build.

Built Fat Fender Tough:

  • Heavy-duty motor mounts machined from quality steel, engineered to handle everything your Coyote can dish out. Precision-welded transmission cross-member built for strength that won't flex under load. All mounting hardware, detailed templates, and step-by-step instructions included.
  • Ships raw steel ready for your preferred finish – whether that's powder coating, paint, or leaving them natural for that industrial look. Product photos show powder-coated examples of the quality finish these mounts can achieve.
  • This kit transforms more than just power output – it bridges decades of Ford engineering while giving your classic the modern muscle it was always meant to have. When you're ready to wake up that sleeping giant, this is where it starts.
