Thread: Complete suspension overhall for my 2010 GT500

    Complete suspension overhall for my 2010 GT500

    SmokinStangs - Mustang Forum! The home of the SmokinStangs Laconia - Mustang Rally
    Hey everyone... After tons of research, I pulled the trigger on a complete suspension from BMR - www.bmsuspension.com. I worked with Kelly and he was awesome. Very knowledgeable and responsive. My hope is to break the vert stereotype and turn my GT500 into a real corner carver. Here is what I ordered:

    Front 35mm and rear 22mm sway bars
    Lowering springs (1.5" rear 1.25" front)
    Upper Control arm
    Upper control arm mount
    Billet Lower control arms
    Lower control arm relocation mount
    New Camber bolts
    Adjustable panhard rod
    Panhard rod brace
    A-arm support Brace
    Sub-frame connectors (Weld on)
    Tokico D-Spec adjustable shocks and struts
    Upper strut mount
    Tunnel brace

    Should be awesome.....

    Mine was 100% better after I lowered it and beefed up the suspension, you'll notice the difference while it's still on the lift.

    Looks like I am going to be having the work done by ProTree in Hudson NH - if they ever get back to me with the quote :)

    Between the welding of the lower control arm brackets & Subframe connectors and not having access to a lift I feel its best to leave it to someone else.

    Good idea to have someone else do it. As for the quote, I 've been waiting 2.5 weeks for a price on A-arms. I'm giving up and ordering them myself in the morning.
