When I talked with them about there suspension kits, they mentioned nothing about SFC's. MM has been in R&D for almost two years. They've missed the boat IMO.

If properly engineering a solution and not rushing to market means missing the boat, then yeah ok. I guess MGW missed the boat on their shifter too, which makes every other one look like garbage. MM was nearly the *the last* to make products for the fox, now they are the standard along with griggs. No one goes to Steeda if they want good suspension parts for a 79 - 04. MM will most likely the be the ONLY solution in a few years for the s197 like they are with all of the fox platforms. Steeda is overpriced junk, hence first to market. Oh I know I know " technology transfer program with Ford!!!" Whatever.

Griggs has had product out (GR40) for the S197 Mustang for almost 6 months. MM has been "testing" their suspension since SEMA 2005. I personally got tired of waiting for them to release their kit and went elsewhere. I am sure a lot of people did the same, hence the missed boat comment.

I cant see how it would hurt anything anytime you stiffen the chassis. The only one I am interested in is the crossmember with the two struts to firm up the tranny mount. That thing wiggles and giggles all over the place.

I have BMR's boxed from Lethal Performance. Noticed a big difference in the chassis especially launching off the line! I guarantee you that if it wasn't beneficial, I wouldn't acquire the "dead weight." The mentality that b/c x company doesn't make this product than it's not necessary is a bit narrow minded. I truly only need 3 jack stands to keep my car off the ground...although I use 4 for common sense. My point is that the chassis is stiff enough that when I jack up the front left tire, the right front tire raises also and is level with it.
Lethal Performance has the right pricing on these and all products but most importantly, has the solid customer service to back it up!
