Mustang Suspension Basics

[Sendero]

I stumbled upon this website while searching for some information about upper control arms. This site explains EVERYTHING about Late Model Mustang Suspensions. Please take a minute to read through it. It even has some animations to help you understand the movements.

Mods you may want to sticky this one as a FAQ. :thumb:

Awesome saved my posting a thread

this is awsome, really cleared up some q's i had with the live axcel setup.
So if i read that right, the stang would turn better if tubular k-members came with mounting points for upper control arms?? :confused:

This is a good write up. I have a question about using the torque arm and a panhard bar. How come if the article states this combo controls binding so much better then UCA, why do I not see anyone running the setup? According to what I am reading here it will help significantly more then just a UCA.

I have a TA/PHB. Plenty of people run them. They are not ideal for drag racing but a must if you intend to do any serious road racing.

What about the Crown Vic straight-back upper and lower control arms and watts link? Waste of time?

I haven't actually gone though that much of the site but what i've seen it's a good resourse.

[ThunderChicken1]

i just tried that link and noticed that none of the pics on that site are showing up. is there anyway someone here could get ahold of them to re-host those articles? looks like really good stuff, i wish i could see what they're talkin about...

:hammerhd:

[white_2kgt]

[ThunderChicken1]

[blstang]

Thats a really cool article . I like the clear photos and explanations.

I noticed that was based on on the 2000 model year .But its the same on 97's right ?
