Which lower control arms to get rid of wheel hop?

[jlwdvm]

What are you using to get rid of wheel hop? I won't be drag racing the car, but it will see road course and autocross.

Whiteline are awesome and fairly cheap for adjustable LCA's.

Do springs while your at is, so much better on a road course.

Ordered a brake cooling kit and a pair of Ford Racing lower control arms with poly bushings form Tousley Ford. I did the springs, struts, aphb, etc with my 2011 GT...my Boss will stay as close to stock as possible.

Try and hold out, you may kick yourself if you do eventually do springs and realize how much better even the P springs are for road courses. Plus you may also need some relo brackets for the LCA's to change the geometry. I would suggest Whiteline again as they seem to bolt up in more spots then the Ford ones.

I highly recommend you contacting Van (sponsor on this site)

Revan Racing, Inc. - Performance Parts for Late Model Mustangs

He has a buttload of experience on road courses with these cars, and is always involved in some of the sickest builds out there. :beer:

I'd be happy to speak with you as a driver and hear what you want to achieve and help you work to that end.

Thanks for the help. I want to keep my Boss as close to stock as possible. I will be going to MVP Track Time at Autobahn in Joliet, IL in June to get a day on their 3.6 mile road course. Trying to get a few things ironed out before then. Will be changing brake fluid to Motul 600 when I change out the LCAs and install brake ducts.

either the whiteline or bmr are very nice

both very good and we have both

Why not go with the m-5649-s lca setup? Especially if you like to keep things within the blue oval.

For wheel hop, we also just got our Roush stocking order in,

Roush 2011-2014 Ford Mustang Wheel Hop Reduction Kit - Roush - Upper Control Arms - Control Arms - Suspension - 2012-2013 Boss Mustang 302

It's a pretty good value, and you know with that Roush name you're getting a quality product. I would say a toss up between Roush and Whiteline.

Wanted to stay with the poly bushings because they are supposed to be able to get rid of the hop with minimal increase in NVH. If they don't work...I'll be looking elsewhere.
