Default Towing with a Mustang II front end

Yes, I know this forum is for "traditional" vehicles so don't bother telling me to go to the HAMB. I've already done that. Lots of rodders do check out this site so I'm posting it here too.

Flat bedding with a Mustang II front end can easily squash your brake lines running over the crossmember when they try to winch the car on.

I made these brackets that bolt to the bumper bracket mount to the frame:

Hey Tom, if you were running a Flathead you wouldn't need a flatbed... LOL Just kiddin', those brackets might make a good addition to all our cars, stock or otherwise... Yes, its true... I have had to request the assistance of a flatbed once or twice...
