Suspension Work
I have been drag racing my car for years and still want to but I also want to make the car a little roadrace ready. Not to mention I'm sure some of the parts could use replacing as I just rolled 140,000 miles. *motor was replaced at 108,000 with MMR stroker*
BUT I have no idea where I should start? :( |
Panhard bar, subframes, bilstein dampeners, c/c plates, and a torque arm will satisfy all your needs
|
I would do it in this order
Subframes, c/c plates, rear lower control arms (drag race launches), Panhard bar, bilsteins I have hit up Maximum Motorsports for all my suspension needs and am very happy. Great product and great installation instructions. I have not needed their customer service but I hear it it top notch. They are in San Louis Obispo so shipping is supper quick. |
If we're going in order of importance. Panhard bar, control arms and bilsteins. c/c plates for later, only truly need them for aggressive camber settings, the stock ones are good for 1.5* negative.
Panhard first for sure though. |

Everything else is stock I think. I was looking at some the the packages and I know I want a tube K-member so in the future I can go turbo. If I go to full Coil-Over is that going to destroy my launch? |
im pretty sure if you call MM they will replace that c/c plate. Coil overs can either help, or hurt or make both better, all depends on the dampeners and spring rate choice. I'd do a coil over conversion with HD shocks and struts and a 200lb-250lb spring up front and rear all depends if you want to go T/A or not. Get a panhard first though, you'll be happy

What does the panhard do?
|
Locates the axle in side to side motion. Gets rid of rear end instability and gives it a defined predictability. VERY helpful on a mustang.
|
The best handling Mustang I rode in had this Open Track system installed. Turn in was incredible and the rear stayed planted.
