Last piece...

[3vs197]

so i have all of my suspension stuff that i want and am ready to purchase the rear sway bar. car has bmr springs, koni strt's, bmr adj. uca and lca's, adj. panhard bar and the last piece i want to get is the rear sway bar.

car is a dd, take it to the track a couple times a year so i know some of you guys are going to tell me to ditch the bmr springs but they get me 1.73 short times on street tires and seem to handle well.

i was thinking the steeda bar as i dont wanna spend a bunch of money and don't car for adjustability cause i will never adjust it lol. just want something a little stiffer to help with the push the car has.

suggestions?

thanks. also i work for a ford dealer so if a GT500 piece will work i can probably get that on the cheap.

thanks guys.

I have a Roush bar that might work for you (decided to go with an adjustable Strano system). Sent you a pm with link

i'd call sam and get his adjustables. i have them on my car and it is great with soft front, medium rear settings on my car. also, when you change them lock tight everything and tighten the piss out of the end links. mine had a minor knock in the front end because the nut loosened itself a turn on the front that drove me crazy for a week

And use blue loctite or give up playing with the front links and order a set of Sam's links.

What about the FRPP Rear Sway Bar? CDC has them on sale now.
BTW - if you do buy one, save one for me, I'm gonna buy one.

it looks like its only 18mm. isn't the stock rear bar bigger than that?

Talk to Sam Strano.

Stock rear bars on a GT are 20mm. FRPP bars are 22mm, but solid and non-adjustable. My rear bar is hollow, and 3-way adjustable like the front (not size wise, but everything else). Also you won't like this, but I'd make a spring change. The ones you have are lower, but run basically stock rates.... and when you lower a car you want more spring rate to counter the shorter travel (the same weight is still riding on top of them) and not doing that simply causes your bumpstops to be defacto active springs much too often. Those are fine for cruising around, the look good... but that's what they do... they look good. The rates on the current springs are softer than some stock rates from Ford.

appreciate the input guys. i might change my springs someday but just not anytime soon. i just want better stuff to make the car better on a 8/10's scale, i dont really care to get that extra 2/10's 99% of the time. thats why i didn't buy adjustable struts/shocks for my car because i know i well never acutally adjust them.

Your call... But spring and dampers are the biggest places not to skimp. You've got looks springs there, not performance springs.

how are the frpp K springs? I think I'll go with a coilover next year... stiffer springs would probably hurt his straight line though, and that's probably his priority.
