Few Suspension questions

[5.0Gt-Neal]

I just purchased Eibach sportline springs for my 94 mustang. While doin the springs i also wanted to do the control arms and k member. I currently have kyb struts. What k member could i use w/ this spring / shock set up? Also what control arms do people reccomend?
And do most people just upgrade the front control arms, or should i look into doin the rear as well?
By the way this is a mostly daily driven mustang used mainly on the street w/ some strip action.

Thanks for the help

i have QA1 tubular k member on my car and i like it a lot. it comes with removable spring pearches so if down the road you want to switch
to coilovers, you can take them out. UPR also sells a complete front tubular kit (k member, A-arms, coilover conversion) for around $700.
Most people upgrade their rear lower control arms, as well as the uppers. UPR and Maximum Motorsports both sell kits with both for around
$200. or if you wanted to do a complete front and rear UPR and MM both have their own complete packages, UPRs around $1300, and
MM closer to $2400.

- I think a UPR Chromoly piece would be just fine. No need to spend all that cash on a QA1 if your car is mostly a DD and street driven.


- 2003 Cobra Front Control Arms

- Ford Racing Upper Control Arms (Rear)

- Maximum Motorsports Non- Adjustable Lower Control Arms (Rear)

as has been stated, you'll want lower control arms, get rid of some of that axle deflection! MM lowers are the best IMO.
in fact MM parts in general are better, and they do cost a bit more.... because they're better.
K member is expensive, might as well do A arms if you do the K.

the rear suspension is the limiting factor for mustang preformance much more than the front. Not saying the front is prefect, but it's not as bad as that sloppy 4 link flawed desigh from the 70s.
As Lafe said - if you do rear uppers only do FFRP. it's along story, just trust us on that, or call MM and they can explain it.
Good luck!
