[QUOTE="moncho, post: 15629673, member: 128236"] Wanted some input on the following, but first a little background… The car isn’t a daily driver, it’s used mostly for joyriding & spirited driving. Would like to have the option or ability of tracking the car and going down the ¼ mile. Also, looking to install a Roush UCA to hopefully rid me of wheel hop. I’m currently using a ’13 GT500 carbon fiber drive shaft that uses CV joints so pinion angle shouldn’t be an issue with a non-adjustable UCA. I have a set of Bob’s nonadjustable LCA as well. Will I need relocation brackets or possibly a panhard bar with the lowered rear end (~1.25” drop) or is it a wait and see if it’s needed? The car will be lowered front & back using the M-5300-L FRPP springs. With this drop (~1.25”) should I be concerned about “bump steer”? If so, what’s recommended? So I’m thinking of going with the M-18000-G SVT PP suspension package. Price point isn’t bad @ about $478. Will the new struts be an improvement over OEM? [I]Product Description[/I] [I]2007-2012 MUSTANG SHELBY GT500 HANDLING KIT Fits 2007-2012 Shelby GT500 Coupe OEM 2012 GT500 performance shocks/struts and Ford Racing lowering springs provide increased control for optimum handling while maintaining a reasonable ride for street use Shocks/Struts are original equipment on 2011-2012 Shelby GT500 Performance Package option Includes M-5300-L Ford Racing Lowering Springs and Jounce Bumpers M-5570-A.[/I] [ATTACH=full]92728[/ATTACH] Also, wondering if I need to swap out the OEM strut mounts to these (M-18183-C)? Long term goal will be a TVS install with all supporting mods. Any help/advice would be appreciated. Cheers, Ray [/QUOTE]
