    And, Norm, I think I'll leave the rear anti-sway bars on the rear when I go to the strip. Plus I'm a bit shy on taking them off for racing.

    I found that adjusting my Tokico dampers to almost full soft in front and rear gave me the best times with my stock summer tires. This summer I am hoping to get in to the 10s with a set of drag radials. I will try all different permutations at that time and, Lord willing, will post my...

    Since the sway bar uses spring steel to "pull" the opposing side down via a pivot point, but cannot keep the axle from left to right movement we need a panhard bar. Since the watts keeps the axle centered and stops roll both, why do we need that anti-sway bar? Then again perhaps one...

    Sorry guys, I didn't catch the comment at the end of Dylan's post. I have mine set in one of the lower holes with a bit stiffer a/s bar. It is fine. But.... might have to take the bar off to see the difference.

    I am curious, how is that working out? What is handling and ride like? It "seems" like a rear anti-sway bar shouldn't be needed as the watts does both the locating of the axle and the roll. I would also like to hear the BMR suspension person comment on this as well.

    2015 5.0 crate motor

    I looked long and hard at this a few years ago with my 2009 Bullitt. Upgrading to the coyote engine will require not only new ecm but you would run into problems with gauges and other electronics. I decided to sell and buy the 2011 GT. Out of the box the engine is all aluminum with better...

    I never mentioned the dampers. But, stopping up/down movement with either the dampers or springs will still not fix the PB problem. BTW, this is my opinion. I'm not an autocrosser, just drag race from time to time and take every sharp corner on blacktop as fast as the tires hold me. I keep...

    If spring rates, etc are fairly equal the lowered car must take the corners better because there is less leverage of the body on the axle, etc.

    With similar dampers and anti sway bars, I firmly disagree. The PB moves the axle sideways. Cant change that. My opinion. I've had them both. When the potholes/bumps come the PB is a real drag. Moves that axle all around.

    OK. Here is my experience with no bias to anyone. I am not beholden to any company BMR, Fays, J&M, etc, etc. I have had many s197 Mustangs (4). I have lowered 2 with P springs. I have used 3 different relocation brackets Adjustable panhard bars, Koni adjustables, Tokico adjustables...

    Update on the BMR watts link. As reported by myself and others earlier on bumps you can get a "thump" back near the axle. It was/is the drivers side exhaust pipe. When I raised my car back to stock ride height even on bumps the noise was not there. Good job by BMR to make it silent on the...

    Finally got it installed. Well, hello Bullittheads. As promised, I am reviewing the 2 chassis mounted watts links. As many of you know I have had 4 S197s over the years with all sorts of suspension mods. Here is a quick comparison between the adjustable panhard bar, Fays 2 watts and BMR...
