Just saw these on FRPP website. The price seems to be good but my question is will I notice anything different in terms of more stability and firmer steering feel?

Yes. They're similar to the PP rear toe link where the bearing is much better vs. rubber bushing.

A bit off topic but I thought I read that most if not all GTs came with the PP rear toe links.

I could be thinking of a different part.

Thanks

The reason for that is still unknown, but yes.

Well the front tension link arm (long one) I have not seen much difference in, with the primary difference being mounting points for air deflectors.

The Lateral Link...the PP version definitely looks beefed up, and also features an OEM style monoball instead of a rubber bushing.

Can someone post a link or images of the actual FRPP Kit mentioned?

Looks like they give you both so you can have the air deflectors too. The only performance (handling) difference is the lateral link at the mounting point.

I have been playing around with Forged Aluminum Tension Links - with 1" Spherical Bearing assemblies that we make in house.

So you are saying the control arm with air deflector is the same as the base gt without the air deflector?

From what we have found here, that does seem to be the case.

Also, you may want to check your Toe Links you already have. EVERY single S550 I have touched or looked at, Non PP or PP....EB, V6 or GT.....has had the "PP Toe Links" already installed from the factory.

Just trying to help. :thumbsup:

The part # on PP and non PP bushings on the front tension link is

FR3C-3A262-BA

I am pretty confident the only difference are the deflectors [MENTION=15675]Niz55[/MENTION]

Yes. Verified by my inside source in Mustang V-Dyn. The lateral link however, is worth getting (or whatever Kelly cooks up here).
