  1. Steeda pro-actions (adjusting rebound)

    I have had adjustable pro-action shocks & struts along with steeda billet rear shock mounts on my 16 GT for about 7500 miles. I too started at one full turn from full soft and didn't like the ride quality. I tried stiffer settings and still didn't like the ride quality so I started over at full...
  2. Steeda Testing with Koni - Active Suspension

    Koni has offered the FSD Technology Shock & Struts for BMW, VW & Audi for about 10 years. FSD Technology is not new for Koni it is just new for the S550 Mustang. I had FSD Shocks & Struts on a BMW e46 330ci and i really liked them. The ride quality was more than excellent and the handling was...
  3. GT Strut Tower Brace

    The Strut Tower brace is a good start. But you should consider doing this https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/pp-strut-tower-brace-kit-cowl-extension-lower-k-brace-install-guide.100800/. Ford added these parts to the GT PP cars to improve handling. I have done this upgrade and there is a...
  4. PP Strut Tower Brace kit + Cowl Extension + Lower K Brace Install Guide

    I just added the firewall extension yesterday after about 2 years with strut tower & K braces. Today I went on a 80 mile drive through some mountain roads where i live. Part of this drive was east bound on I-80 above 4000 ft elevation where the road is covered with show 3 months of the year so...
  5. need suggestion on suspension setup for COMFORTABLE ride quality?

    Yes I have GT non-PP springs. Also I am running 255/45 Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus tires https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Pirelli&tireModel=P+Zero+All+Season+Plus&sidewall=Blackwall&partnum=545YR8P0ASP&tab=Sizes on 18x9 Apex EC-7 Wheels. 18 inch wheels will also help with the...
  6. need suggestion on suspension setup for COMFORTABLE ride quality?

    I have tried three different spring sets, my stock GT springs, Steeda Progressives Springs, and BMR SP089-SP092 Springs looking for the most comfortable ride. What I found had the best ride quality is my original GT springs with Steeda Adjustable Shocks & Struts with Steeda Bump Stops. I have my...
  7. Bump stops

    You will get better ride quality with the Steeda bump stops. It is true that they are a harder material but because they are the correct length you will hardly ever actually hit them. I have changed out my springs several times trying different bump stops each time. I thought that the Ford...
  8. don't laugh, quieter exhaust system??

    No not exactly, 18's have quad tips so you need to add those to the 15-17 mufflers.
  9. don't laugh, quieter exhaust system??

    I agree it would be cheaper than the CJPP unit to have an exhaust shop do the install of just the Tru X muffler in place of the resonator. I still have the rest my stock exhaust system and it is indeed a deeper smother quieter exhaust sound. The OP could try this as a first steep towards...

    Is this the Tru X that you are talking about...
  11. Rear Clunk After New Shocks/Mounts...

    This good that Steeda now offers these sockets. I went to the Steeda website but I could not easily find these sockets even though I knew that they are available. Also the sockets are not referenced on any of the website pages for shock mounts themselves or the shock mount install instructions...
  12. Rear Clunk After New Shocks/Mounts...

    It's hard to tighten the top rear shock locking nuts with Steeda shock mounts. You need to be able to put wrench on the shock shaft while you tightening the locking nut. You can do this using this tool https://www.ecstuning.com/b-schwaben-parts/strut-nut-socket-21mm/003046sch01a-03/. Steeda...
  13. More comfortable ride option?

    It's not the non-PP springs it's the poorly designed shocks and struts that are the problem. Better shocks & struts will change the ride quality more than you might think possible. I like the Steeda adjustable's they match up well with non-PP springs. I don't have the dash vibrating on rough...
  14. More comfortable ride option?

    My suspension goal has always been to have a more comfortable. The first thing I did is install Steeda Pro-Action Shocks & Struts with the Steeda Billet Shock Mounts. This improved the ride comfort by a huge amount. I would also get the Steeda Bump Stops which improve the ride quality almost as...
