help ...(suspension kit)

May 15, 2005 3 Replies

i just install a new "M-5400-A mustang handling kit" from fordracing, on my



2001 mustang( new gas shock, new spring , and sway bar) the ride comfort does improve . but its seem like the steering is too sensitive, it feel like its easy to lose control of the car, and i can't take the corner like i used too..just want to know do i have to bring some where to get it tuned. if so what is the right term for that and like where. if there no such thing thank any way..

If you haven't done an alignment after this swap you definitely need to.

Suggest the following specs. (as per JD Adams)

Toe-in: 0.00 degrees Camber angle: -.25 degrees left and right (-.50 deg. left/right for very aggressive driving) Caster angle: non-adjustable

I have the same suspension system. My settings are as above except that my camber is set at -.3 degrees.

On a side note you may find that with this suspension you cannot obtain these specs without new CC plates or by elongating the alignment slots on the strut tower. Doesn't take much about 1/4" to 1/3". I opted for elongating the alignment slots.

Hope this helps.

Is the M-5400-A kit the Bullitt suspension package?

I've been considering (for years) that kit as an upgrade to my stock '97 Cobra suspension... considering that it's essentially a GT suspension with stiffer sway bars, the rear of which broke a long time ago...

yes it's a bullitt suspension kit.. it improve the cornering ability , quicker response and improve ride comfort..
