Bread & butter isn't just for the dinner table anymore!

We worked with Kelly Aiken of BMR Suspension to create the ultimate street/strip suspension package for your 2015+ Mustang.

We ripped off a 1.99 60' on the stock setup which left a lot to be desired on our 2018 Mustang GT, aka Project Goldmember.

We took a trip to BMR and had them do their magic, installing what Kelly deemed the Bread & Butter of their suspension offerings for the S550.

After adding the suspension we've gone a 1.50 60' during our 9.39 1/4 mile run! And we can still get it faster... stay tuned for our next outing!

Here is what the Bread & Butter package consists of:

CB005 – Cradle Bushing Lockout Kit
  • Designed to eliminate cradle bushing deflection & wheelhop
  • 80%-90% reduction in fore/aft and lateral cradle bushing deflection
  • Comes with spacer rings to lock out the top of the cradle bushing so that it doesn't deflect at WOT
  • Comes with lower bushing mounts to eliminate lower bushing movement, keeping it from dipping down & causing the pinion to rise

BK081 – Spherical Lower Control Arm Bearing
  • Designed to eliminate cradle deflection & wheelhop
  • “One of the most important & overlooked components” -Kelly Aiken
  • Factory bushings are molded from soft rubber & contain voids/air pockets, causing movement of the lower control arm during aggressive launching/driving. The solid spherical setup eliminates these voids, therefore eliminating the control arm movement.
  • Also keeps the wheels from moving forward due to bushing deflection at WOT

BK051 – Differential Bushing Lockout Kit
  • Designed to eliminate the voids in the stock differential bushing setup
  • Locks the differential movement so that breakage of driveline components is avoided

If you're going to do the differential bushings, we HIGHLY suggest upgrading the hardware while you're in there. Not only are the bolts themselves stronger than the OEM pieces, but the kit also plays an integral role in limiting differential movement. In the rear bushing, the stock bolt has a ton of play in it as it is a smaller diameter than it's location. This causes the diff to be able to move, as shown by the bolt being off center in our car, which in turn changes pinion angle, causing vibration & driveline parts carnage (like us breaking our driver's side axle on Project Goldmember). This play in the bolt also leads to the bushing & cradle actually slicing/cutting the bolt when the car is loaded up & launched. No bueno! Then there is the front bushing setup, which is a threaded design from factory. Because the bushing sheer strength is relying on the threaded part of the bolt, it is much weaker than if it were to rely on the shank (or solid) part of the bolt. These are all helped with the hardware upgrade kit:

LP-550179 – Extreme Differential Bushing Hardware Upgrade Kit
  • Designed as an upgraded version of BMR's RH017 Hardware Upgrade Kit
  • Upgrades both the front & rear differential bushing bolts to stronger pieces
  • Sleeve placed in rear diff bushing eliminates void from factory
  • Front bushing threads are drilled out & bolt is replaced, with bushing sheer on solid part of bolt and a nut in the rear, which is roughly 70% stronger

Continuing on, the following components will allow more fine tuning of the rear suspension:

TR005 – Double Adjustable Rear Toe Rods
  • Stock stamped steel pieces equipped with eccentric bolt slip & pivot under load, changing the alignment of the rear wheels
  • BMR pieces keep geometry better during suspension arc due to offset spherical bushing
  • Come with lockout plates for the mounting point to eliminate the eccentric bolt from factory that turns
  • Allow for a wide range of adjustment

TCA048 – Vertical Links
  • Light & strong, while still offering bushing compliance & no increased NVH
  • Limit range of cradle movement
  • Only vertical link on the market that has ability to grease/service the bushings ON the car
