2011 GT500 UCA in a 2007 GT?

Compared to the 2007-2009 GT500 UCA, the 2011 is an inch longer, will it cause issues with the pinion angle if installed on a 2007 GT?

There is no question that it will rotate the top of the axle toward the rear of the car and will change the pinion angle.

How much the pinion angle will change and if that will cause a driveability issue is a good question.

Only someone else who gas already done it could tell you. If it were me I would order a rear control arm kit that was made for your car rather than try to make something else work.

A bad pinion angle will cause vibrations and premature wear of your u-joints.
