Bullitt suspension vs. stock GT

I own a regular GT and was wondering if the Bullitt suspension is different, if so - how? I am looking to modify my suspension but I feel the FRPP suspension from the Shelby GT is too rough (don't want to lose any fillings).

I am in the process of upgrading my OEM 17" wheels/tires to the 18" DD Bullitts...they're going to be staggered with 18x9s (255/45 tires) up front and 18x10s (285/40 tires) in back.

I just want to enhance my current set up and was wondering if there are any differences betweeen the stock GT and the Bullitt.

Thanks in advance!!!

Don't worry about your fillings with the FRPP gear. It's not rough at all - that being said - any modifications to your stock set-up will not ride as soft as a stock set up.

The difference between the GT and the Bullitt's ride is noticeable but it is still confortable.

You might like to PM 05stangkc perhaps he can find out what the parts' numbers are if not the parts department of your local ford dealer should be able to.

I can vouch for the set up on the Shelby GT. I rented a GT-H and the ride was great, not harsh at all.
