He said that lower control arms were an instant fix and a smart purchase for his mustang, which has the same limited slip set up. I think the car would really wake up off the line with this purchase but i didn't wanna be the guinea pig  |
Stiffer rear springs help to reduce the wheel hop, but will reduce your performance off the line at the strip.
The 2005-2009 Mustangs had a problem with the upper rear link, it was too short especially if the car was lowered at all. There are several aftermarket adjustable versions as a result.
