BMR Suspension Parts Order of Install

[Horizon5.0]

I have a 2019 mustang gt a10 pp1 and plan on getting a bunch of suspension parts to reduce wheel hop and improve acceleration. my car has bolt on and e85 making about 465whp and i have 305/35r20 Michelin PS4S on the rear. what order should i get these items in terms of benefit and performance? which aren’t necessary or worth it if any? and what else should i look at getting? i dont have a huge budget so i plan on getting these over time. that is why im wondering what order to get them in.

BMR Cradle lockout level 2 (CB005)
BMR Differential bushing lockout (BK051)
BMR IRS Subframe Support brace (CB762)
BMR Drag lowering springs (SP086)
BMR Vertical links, polyurethane (TCA048)
BMR Bearing kit, lower control arm (BK081)

what would be a good order-of-install on these parts to get the most as quick as possible when purchasing over time and not all at once? and are any of these not worth it? i also do plan on supercharging later down the line. i want the best 60’, 0-60, and 60-130 out of this.

My vote is for the cb005. that was my first suspension mod. it made the biggest difference coming from stock. second i would do the diff lockout. then i did a set of vlinks. cant speak to the lowering springs they may be the best thing ever but im sure someone else will chime in.

Drop subframe (hang it by the bolts)

1. LCA bushing
2. springs
3. diff bushing lockouts
4. Cradle lockout, and put the subframe back up at the same time
5. Subframe support brace
6. vertical links

That should be the most optimal order of operations for what you have. Lowering the subframe takes the tension off the LCA, which makes removing it much easier. Thats also how you get the springs in easily.

Also I have those LCA bushings on standby, I want to install them but I'm just not really excited about the task, getting the old ones out seems like a pain. Curious what your plan is, so i can copy you if it works well

well i won’t be able to do all of this at once is the thing. i planned on purchasing one or two of the things at a time over a few months.

oh i see, well if you want to do them one at a time it doesn't really matter what order you do them in. Though I would do the lockouts and bracing first, they'll make the biggest difference.

doing it all at once avoids duplicating a lot of work though, but its expensive like that.

Dont expect to get much (if any) faster. If you wantt more grip off the line, tires add grip, not braces.

you dont need much to eliminate most of the wheel hop, and usually better tires, in the dry, will hop less in my experience. In the wet good luck.

If you're splitting this up into a few sessions, get all your parts ordered, then once you get it all in and can financially make it work, do it all at the same time to save $$ on labor, and downtime. if you HAVE to do something now and wait on the rest, do cradle lockout and vertical links. my 2 cents.

It has been established that CB005 and CB762 is an either/or choice. It is overkill to install both. I successfully installed CB762 on a friend's car, but then could not get it to fit on my own car. Because of that I can't really recommend it. CB005 is fairly easy to install.

Vertical links can be installed any time without drama.

However ... for the rest of your list....
I recommend installing the other parts at the same time. BK081 requires complete removal of lower control arms. Which requires lowering the cradle until almost falling on the floor. Which makes spring change easy. And makes install of the front part of BK051 much easier (it's almost impossible without lowering the cradle a lot).

I made my own DIY cradle lowering studs kit. It is a cheaper and temporary stud kit as opposed to permanent studs offered by the aftermarket.

I paid my local shop to remove and install. 60 bucks. I did the toe link bearing myself with this. It is not recommended to use a impact but I feel all things Chinese are shit so I took the chance and they held up.

$60 bucks is a no-brainer, i guess i'll call around and see!

I'm gonna remove the arms, i don't expect to get the whole install for $60 lmao

$60 to replace those bushings with bearings on loose arms is a great price.

Interesting as I was going to install both this Spring.
