Brake Dive

[mambaman]

I've only had my car for a month or so, but one thing i don't like too much about it is the signifigant brake dive (keeping in mind that the car i was used to was a CSVT). is this a common cobra thing?it's not horrible or anything, but if i want to stop NOW, it just about sniffs the pavement. i'm assuming that some sport springs (steeda or eibachs) would help this out a bit?thanks

yeah. Mustang suspension geometry sucks...well..for the most part any way. If you want to check some sites out go to www.corner-carvers.com for some suspension tech. You can even check out GRIGGS , MAXIMUM MOTORSPORTS or GLOBAL WEST

I thought the same thing. On SN95 Cobras, the suspension can use a lot of work. When I installed C springs, the nose dive pretty much dissapeared.

I would strongly recommend throwing on some global west subframe connectors. It really tightened up my 97 Cobra nicely.
