I have seen a lot of discussions talking about installing a Mustang II kit. My question is does anybody have any advice as to where to find info on the install of an original Mustang II front end into a 1965 Mustang?

If it was my '65 I'd just install a few chosen Shelby parts and big disk brakes.
The car would handle better and stop just as good with that setup than if you went through all the gyrations of installing a Mustang II IFS. Then that's me.

I know it's been done but unfortunately I have no info on it.

I do not think adapting an OEM M II front end into a 65 Mustang would be a very good ideal and many others think the same way because it is not being done. In my opinion, the torque box/quasi frame rails are not strong enough for this. Fatmans and other kit companies have done a lot of work to adapt R&P steering to the early Mustangs, but do not offer a M II kit per se.
