Maximum Motorsports shows off IRS suspension for Mustang

LET THE CURVES COME!!!!!!!!!!

 

I dunno, Looks really heavy-need to see some material specs, etc.

 

Same here but it is exciting to say the least.





TREKKIE

I'm not one I just remember stupid trivia...maybe I'm reformed...I dunno

 

THere was also a Company called Control Freak, that had their own 05' 06' IRS suspension system, and front set-up, looked pretty awesome to me......

 

Got any Articles I'd like to see that too

 

Great news!!! Thanks for finding it James!!

 

My only question right now is if the double A arms are unequal length. I am assuming they are because the performance difference between equal length and Mcpherson strut is not much at all if any.

I am trying to get on the waiting list for them, hopefully cost will not be prohibitive.

I looked again and they are indeed unequal length. This is basically the same type of suspension used on all high performance sports car.

 

Very nice. Still like my solid rear axle though but for tracks other than a 1/4 mile that thing would be nice.

 

I thought I read recently that someone said that Kenny Bell was coming out with an IRS setup as well. I can't find any articles on it.

 

I'm in contact with Al at Control Freak. The IRS setup is amazing. My next project car will have the complete IRS kit. check the website.

Ummm, there is nothing on that site. Am I missing something?

Any specs on the IRS? Weight? Does it use any exisiting parts? Cost? Difficulty in installation?

 

I'll have to see the cost but

I wish Ford had put IRS on these cars in the first place

 

Yea, I am not finding anything IRS on that site either. Is there a secret link or do I need a decoder ring?



I am interested in it as well. I think it is a nice option if someone wants IRS for their V6, GT, Shelby Mustangs.

 

On the double A-arm front suspension, what kind of joint is that at the top of the spindle? A spherical bearing? Doesn't appear to be a normal automotive ball joint. I assume they are using the stock spindle with a bolt on attachment to join with the upper A-arm at the top ...
