You can probably make it work, with a lot of work. The thing is there are better suspension systems out there. If you are not required to run a certain...

... Many years ago in road racing I had rules that required leaf springs on my '70 Mustang. I ran a floater (spring to leaf spring mount) setup like you are...
Yeah that's my feeling too - its possible floater leaf spring mounts could be turned into a good system. I think in that case I would still stay away from the...
Hello List: Been lurking for a while and have a question. I have a 1997 Cobra with the suspension equipped as follows: Kenny Brown competition panhard bar,...
A solid piece replacing the quad shocks? That sounds bad. I would replace them or remove them. I am not using mine. They control wheelhop. You could leave...
i'm in agreement with tim's points. i don't think too highly of the shop's advice, either. 1. remove the quad shocks and give them the flotation test.(*)...
I'm not sure on how much power you're putting to the ground but keep in mind that the KB bar is only made to handle a certain amount of power. If you're ...

The motor has very few mods. Underdrive pullies, Pro-M 80mm MAF, Chip with mild tune, X-pipe and Flowmasters. I'm pretty sure that RWHP is less than 300. ...
Hey Al, Welcome to the list...... I have a 99' with the full KBP package and truth be told, all my stuff is so new (6 months) I haven't had time to break ...
george, are you sure you're not talking about torque arms? panhard rods aren't hp-dependent, and i've never heard of a vendor using hp ratings for panhards. ...
Yes, it is the Trackit Plus. The failed area is at the left part of the picture where the top tube coming from the right attaches to the bracket. The panhard...
might be a bad weld. in any event, the KB panhard rod is meant to be used with the upper control arms helping to locate the rear axle. it is not strong enough...
Would only use the kmember brace from KB? :) The KB four point brace on my car is bent. I am highly positive I haven't hit anything and it is also bent...
Teddy, I remember years go when I was trying to decide whether or not to add a panhard bar to my car I called them and asked about the power limits of the bar....

Thanks to all that assisted in talking me out of the SVO front suspension and into an SN-95 setup. The final configuration worked much better than the stock...
Hi All, I am new to the list, thanks for having me. I have a 1998 Mustang GT. A while back I bought a Steeda G-Track Stage 1 package. This included Springs,...
if you alter the bushing materials in the lower A-arms, you will transmit more noise and harshness to the cabin. That being said, you will gain less defection...
If you decide to burn the old bushings out, be careful. The old rubber units may have air pockets - and when that air expands, they will pop or explode. It...
From my personal experiences with my street cars, skip the bushings except for the sway bar and steering rack. Those are pretty easy and make the biggest...
