I can handle the front wheel gap on my '14 GT- but the gap at the rear wheels was just ridiculous (IMHO). So, after measuring the difference in the gaps- I did some research and determined the Ford Racing P Springs should make things about even if I just installed the rears.

After hanging a bunch of parts on my '65 coupe on Friday and Saturday, it only took about 40 minutes to R&R the rear springs- the results are in the pic. Very happy, and- unless its my imagination- some of the wheel hop is even gone (can't think of a reason why that would be the case though- so perhaps it was just the weather)!

 

Looks good!
In the picture the gap looks exactly the same now, are hey the same?
How much did it lower the back ?

 

The P Springs decreased the gap in the rear about 1.25". The front and rear gaps are now almost identical (the rears actually sit about 0.125" lower than the front now).

 

Very nice! I like subtle changes like this.

 

Looks good!

 

This is exactly the look I want. Is it a straight "part for part" swap, without the need for anything else?

Nice color by the way....we all know SGM's are the best....

 

That is what I was considering before I went with the Eibach's. Looks awesome. Would love to see more pics from different angles of your car. It looks great. Do you expect some settling after about 200 miles or so?

 

I was thinking about using the 55D springs in the rear.
They lower is 1/2" 3/4" in the rear.
$150 for the two springs!

 

Thanks for the comments!

Straight out swap- no extra parts required, unless you want to also purchase new bump stops to prevent the possibility of bottoming out. I purchased and installed those as well, but I don't think there's much possibility of bottoming out even with the stockers.

This weekend I am installing LCAs to reduce the awful wheel hop, and I'll post some more pics.

 

Looks great varilux. Like what the rear springs did to your stang.

 

Looks really nice! Not over the top.

 

Any change in handling?

Actually yes (surprisingly)... I get a bit less wheel hop, and the rear feels more "solid." Before, when I really got on it there would be a bit surge...surge...surge... to the acceleration (that is when there wasn't jarring wheel hop). Now it is definitely smoother. Also, I was surprised that I could notice better visibility over the rear- bringing the top lip of that spoiler down 1" or so does increase what you can see behind you.

I'm installing a set of SR Performance LCAs this weekend, and I'm hoping that resolves the remaining wheel hop.

Especially for the GT with Track Pack, I don't know why Ford didn't just swap out a few parts to fix the rear end. I can't believe the FR P Springs would have cost Ford more than the standard springs to install- same thing with harder bushings in the control arms. I mean, sure- there might be a little more drivetrain noise (but if the customer's ordering the track pack, I think that's a pretty good indication where the priorities are... just put a disclaimer on there or something about road noise).

 

I generally hate it when people lower a Mustang, but in this case it actually looks great.

 

Looks sharp! I just bought the same springs, but went all around. I didn't want to leave stock springs in the front and have the new P Springs in back.

 

I'd like to see a picture of your Mustang after you have installed the new springs on the front and rear.

I'm not planning to install the fronts- the plan was to "level" the car out by bringing the rear down to match the front.

To the point regarding having the stocks up front and P Springs in the rear... Went over a couple speed bumps today, and it became clear the rear springs are definitely a bit stiffer than the stockers up front. Not problematic, just definitely more of a "thump" when the rear wheels went over the speed bump. Honestly, I'm kinda glad the front end ISN'T as stiff as the rear now.

 

Imagine us guys with K springs . Love the ride

 

I 'm having a local shop do the install. Just waiting on the MGW. It's a few weeks out. I will post some before & after pics when it 's all done.
