i know i will be upgradeing to ultralites and i will save up and do the D-specs and the HD upper mounts in the front

 

I have the Eibach Pro Kit, couldnt be happier!

 

Just had Steeda Sport's put in a couple weeks ago. Drop is the same as Ultralites but a little bit stiffer.

From Steeda's site.

Steeda Ultralites

• Lowers the vehicle approx 1 inch front, 1 1/4 inch rear. The S197 Mustang sits high in the rear. These springs will give it a more aggressive look.
• High quality lower weight wire for less unsprung weight and less inertia for the best ride quality available.
• Good improvement in handling and noticeable reduction in nosedive.

Steeda Sport Springs

• Lowers the vehicle approx 1 inch front, 1 1/4 inch rear. The S197 Mustang sits high in the rear, these springs will give it a more aggressive look.
• Maintans good ride quality for daily driving
• Big improvement in handling and noticeable reduction in nosedive

Ultralites are made for mainly street keeping all if not better ride quality to stock. Sports are made for street as well but those who will spend some time at the track on and off. Overall not a huge difference between the two except the two. My ride quality feels better then stock with the Sports but some bumps like rail road crossings and construction zone changes in pavement are felt a little bit more. Not a big deal down here in Florida since we don't have pot holes.

 

Okay - I'm sold on the Ultralites, where to get them? I most likely will go to Brenspeed unless someone else has a better deal.

Should any other suspension upgrades be required / desired with the Steeda Ultralites??

 

You may want to get camber plates and an adjustable panard bar added as well. The Panard bar is not needed but on some cars the rear end is shifted slightly to one side thus the car "dog legs". Mine did so I added the panard bar. Some have also gotten their front camber correct without adding the camber plates but some haven't. Tacobill got his without them (http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showpo...43&postcount=2). With the Sport springs I have to much negative camber and am going to add the plates soon. Works great for cornering but since majority of my time is daily use and not a road course I am gonna have to fix it.

 

From what you said there. The BMR lowering package seam's like they addressed such issues. I've been going back and forth between the ultra-lites and BMR kit myself. Good stuff to know.

 

Well some really glowing praise for the ultralights. My biggest concern is ride quality and it sounds like they have that in spades. The road conditions in Calgary are marginal to crappy most days and the construction around here is just on the rise so this may be a good option. I want a slightly better look handling, but I don't want the scraping either. Darn, I kinda wish I didn't read this thread, lol!

 

Brenspeed X3, Freee shipping!! Enough said.

 

X4-Great folks to deal with, very fast delivery!

 

what camber kit/plate would you recommend, and what's involved for its installation?

 

I personally haven't done any research on it yet but I may go with Steeda since they are right here near me plus I want to see if I can get away with just the heavy duty strut mounts so I can kill two birds with one stone. My strut mounts aren't popping but if the heavy duty ones from Steeda will give me the camber I need I might as well be done with it.

Here is a good article on Stangnet about installing camber plates.

I've heard good things about these springs

 

Great info, thanks a lot!

This is the set up I want exactly!!! I want the eibach pro kit with the 20' shelby razors!!!

Anything negative to report with this set up? Did you go with the +24mm offset? +40mm offset means that the tires are more tucked under the wheelwells correct?

Thanks
