Hi guys,
I will soon get my 2017 Mustang GT and my plans are to exchange the OE shocks, struts and springs.
So I thought about the Steeda handling kit
https://www.steeda.com/steeda-s550-...ance-pack-handling-kit-15-16-gt-555-2354.html
or the Ford Performance Street Kit
http://www.cjponyparts.com/ford-rac...led-fastback-ecoboost-gt-2015-2017/p/MFR3AMA/
or the Ford Performance Track Kit
http://www.cjponyparts.com/ford-rac...led-fastback-ecoboost-gt-2015-2017/p/MFR3AM8/
I don't want to go on the track, just street use.
Non of these kits seem perfect for me.
1. The Steeda doesn't come preassembled. To preassemble them (I would like to do this by myself) I would need the Steeda S550 Mustang Billet Rear Shock Mount. Do you guys know if I would need any OE parts to assemble the front shocks?
2. The Ford Performance Kits come preassembled with what I understand all parts needed for the install. But I don't like the stance of the car with the springs (front looks a bit higher than rear), which would mean that I would replace the springs with Steeda Mustang Ultralite Springs. But I don't know if this a good setup together.
I also heard that the front sway bars and the rear toe links (only track kit) cause a clunking noise. I would need lateral locks then.
At the moment I'm tending to go with the Ford Performance Street Kit + Steeda Mustang Ultralite Springs - Linear (15-17 GT/V6/) + Lateral Locks
What do you guys say?
PS: Do I need new bolts if I want to install the kits?
