You either need to buy a set of Ford Mounts, complete, for a 2010 or older to run Koni's or run something like a Steeda HD mount (which gains you camber adjustment)... though you still need one part of a 2010 and older Ford upper mount to make those work.

We will have our Strut mounts for the 2011 specific Mustangs in about 3 weeks. Parts are on the lathe now!

That's good to know, and I will be ordering some for stock..... However, that's not a cure-all because they will only fit 2011 struts, and there are at this point NO 2011 specific performance struts out there. So we'll still have to use 2010 and older mounts if you want to run performance dampers until such time that we start to see Tokico, Koni, FRPP, etc. come out with 2011 specific dampers.

Sam and I are in discussion currently regarding a Fays2 and possibly a rear bar. I'm excited to see what kind of difference this will make.

And I have the message Fred (Dread53) I just want to make sure on delivery time of the parts before I called back.

It'll make a big, BIG difference, that I can promise!

Sam, I'm not near the car but I think you are correct in your thoughts on what Saleen did with the bars. Looking at the suspension kit on the website only gets a new front bar.

Yep, I was pretty sure of that... and what's worse, the front bar is not only not adjustable--but it's super heavy because it's solid (stock bars and my bars are hollow). My car to a solid 35, that's about a 10 pound delta. So you might actually consider the set, not just the rear.

Ahh if only I didn't drop $1600 on my winter setup! Fays2 for me sometime next spring for sure, though.

Here's a much less expensive alternative, Lakewood watts link.

Very similar design and less than half the $$$, advertised as low as $408 online.
