In the article about the FFR roadster there is a picture of a bracket that was used to adapt SN-95 spindles to a double arm suspension setup.  I know FFR makes this bracket; my question is does anyone make a bracket that would allow the installation of SN-95 spindles onto a first gen. Mustang suspension?  Can it also be designed to where the camber can be adjusted at the spindle to compliment the adjustment at the upper or lower arm?  RRS's strut suspension has the type of adjustment I am thinking about.  It would greatly simplify camber adjustments on these early Mustangs or anything else that early Mustang(or similar) spindles can be bolted into. It would also open up many more brake options.  
I let my mind wander... It never came back.

I know of at least one person that purchased the FFR brackets and tried to make it work on a Mustang II setup and it didn't have the proper angles. It's just a section of water jet or plasma cut steel, formed and holes drilled in it (it's double walled, two sections welded together) and I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult to fab up a wooden example to get the angles correct and then have a machine shop either CNC it out of aluminum or cut and weld steel versions.

I'm surprised someone like Global West or Chris Alston hasn't done something similar to use SN95 spindles for the brake options, sealed bearing, five lug wheels, etc.
