It’ll be a 4 link and panhard bar setup on this 07 v6 Mustang rear end, the 7.5" is not known for being strong but because of that they are dirt cheap.

Fuel cell could go directly behind the axle in a thin tall design, Id like 15gallons or more. On the other hand making a tank under the passenger seat would be arguably safer and better for weight distribution.

Everything to mount the axle is here as soon as I get myself into gear and make the links.
