Thought you all might want to see the contents of the 2005/2006 M-2005-FR3 FRPP. I just got the package in last week & my dealership is installing it as we speak. I took some photos of the various components just for everyone's information.

The Eibach was on the bushings.

Are the springs made by Eibach too ? I was thinking of getting the FRPP ones if they are.

I don't think so, although I could be wrong. My guess is that they're made by the same company as the decal on the struts, Dynamic Suspensions.

Anyway, I wouldn't base my decision to buy the package on whether or not the parts are made by Eibach. Ford really seemed to have done their homework and from what I can tell made a pretty nice handling package.

If you do a little research I think you'll find that Dynamics is a subsiderary of Eibach. Can't say that 100% of the parts are Eibach but doesn't seem likely they would just buy the sway bar links from Eibach.

 

I thought Dynamic Suspensions was a Multimatic brand?

Right you are sir. Dynamic Suspension is a subsidiary of Multimatic. I called them up to check it out, rather than re-invent the wheel they may have used pieces already available in the market such as the Eibach pieces. I stand corrected.

 

Tony, I'm curious if you or anyone else has measured the rates of the springs in this package? Or, is it published anywhere? Thanks!

I didn't. I did some Googling before I purchased the package, and I don't remember seeing anything about the spring rates. It COULD be out there, but I couldn't find it. Anyone?

Tony

 

If they are the exact springs as the Eibach Pro-Kit, then they would be a progressive rate spring. The Pro-Kit springs are rated at 171/229 lb/in (front) and 109/200 lb/in (rear). Factory springs have a linear rate, with the front listed at 136 lb/in and the rear at 142 lb/in.

 

Okay, I got some pics of my car with the package and wheels & tires. HERE
