So I Finished Up My Control Arms....F'd in The A

[SRT Handz]

So i got around to installing my MM Adjustable LCAs. I got F'd in the A on a few thing in the project.

...To get to the chassis bolts i had to move the exhaust.... while moving it, 2 hangers snapped....i gotta go get some things welded tommorow.

...Then to top that off when the whole project was finished my Big S.T. Sway bar was less than an inch off the ground....it looked dangerously low and when i tryed to drive out of my driveway it got stuck and Ripped a slice in the Road....Didnt do shit to the bar because its so damn thick and strong it didnt even scratch it. I realized i need to get a stock style sway bar.

I was gonna by a Eibach online but hunted down on Craigslist and came up on a Cobra Sway Bar for $30!!! Fits just fine and handles just the same. The MM arms feel great and make the rear end so much stable. Stock LCAs are BS.

...anyone want a S.T. Sway bar for $45? :thumb:

so does it handle better now? and id be careful with that cobra sway bar, ive heard they tend to snap easy.

handles crazy well in the rear now....you can tell there is alot more traction on the road.

Cobra sway isnt as sick as the S.T.

...i need to sell my S.T. Sway.....

yea i had to undo the exhaust too. mufflers were in the way. but worth it in the end! :thumb:

I didn't have any problems with my exhaust when I done my lowers. Was it the muffler? Or the tail pipes? My exhaust is dumped before the rear axle, so that may be why I had no troubles.

sweet man thats cool

i got those too i did all my suspension at once so couldnt tell if they did much, but it handles pretty well.

mm ftw!

too bad about the problems tho

I just did the bushings and I could feel a difference...nothing like you guys are but it was still a little better than stock. I think thats going to be my next mod is getting sub-frames and LCAs to help plant the rear to the ground more. imp:

all I know is its hard for my car to get sideways now which is good and bad at the same time lol

what do you guys suggest doing as far as suspension.... my car is mad scary at higher speeds.. anything over 100 is pretty scary.

if i go over bumps, i feel like a boat going over waves.. the front bounces sooooo bad.

the only thing i have as far as suspension is lowering springs. i want some struts/shocks.. what else do you guys suggest? (handling and suspension wise without spending a million dollars)

just spend the money...there is no cheap way around suspension.

..here is what i have

Eibach Sportlines
Tokico 5-way Adjustable Sport Shocks & Struts
03 Cobra/ FRPP Front Control Arms
MM K-Member Brace
MM Subframe Connectors
MM Adjustable Lower Control Arms
S.T Front Sway Bar, Cobra Rear Sway
S.T Endlinks with Poly
UPR Bumpsteer

Right now the car handles REALLY good

whats i want more...

MM Torque arm and Panhard Bar

 

[TxCobrA98]

and what is the chunk of change this might cost? guesstimate?

 

[MeanGrn Gt]

get a good set of shocks/struts trey it will feel much better. i am planning on going w/ strange. Good pieces and a decent price. Then if you want the rearend to hook up subframes and lcas. Sway bars to tighten up body roll. etc

 

[TxCobrA98]

yeah i just want my car to feel more stable.. not necessarily at high speeds even. just overall, i want my car to feel more solid and not like a blob.

 

[Bluextc]

Just got mine installed today. Car drives ALOT nicer! But I did take it to an empty parking lot, and still ended up sideways. ;D Think I need those DR's!

 

[bigjohnson4.6gt]

nice, how much are you looking for the sway bar?

Cool man, isn't it amazing the difference with the MM part.

Agree - stock suspension is a joke.
and Cheap is a very relative word when talking suspension.

Did you notice you made my sig?

Yeah. This is not my first MM part so i know the amazing quality. Anything else but MM Suspension on a mustang is almost a Joke. Suspension cost $$$ but in the long run, its WAY more fun than Power. My car feels like its complete now. The rear end feels 100% more controllable and i feel like i know where its gonna go....i am about to go test it in some canyons right now.

...and yes White is The New Black
