Did you ever get those rear subframe stud kits back in?

On my way to throw 900lb/in springs on my rear axle of my 2012 S197 Mustang. This going to be gooooood!

using zip-ties to secure it or worm straps? He did say "put it on the back of the car" so maybe I'll hang my set of springs from the truck nuts...

Oh, ye of little faith!

After a long wait. We got them! Currently on stock wheels right now, so I didn’t go crazy with alignment specs… YET! At a 1.5’ drop all around. Cortex and Jri really nailed it with this kit. I can’t wait to really dive into the adjustments

some of the early corners you're coming off the throttle before apex and then getting back on. should be able to maintain throttle all the way thru and then roll on for exit. Also the first upshift to 4th was questionable since you still had 2000 RPM to rev it out before slowing for the corner.

Just curious, why the desire for coilover? looks or performance?

For twice a year track visit , I would just get the Bilstein dampers and BMR handling springs with camber plates and call it a day. Use the other funds for bracing and bearings. If you must have coilovers, I would take a look at the Bilstein PSS10.

Personally I plan to get the ohlins or if money falls in my lap, MCS TT1 but I dont want to go through fine tuning and corner balancing just yet.

I contemplated this very thing and I contacted Vorshlag intended on buying MCS TT1. Their tech, Jason, strongly steered me towards the Ohlins R&T for how I described using the car. I even asked about the custom rate set and he said no - I suggest you use the Ohlins kit as is. I'm paraphrasing but he said they didn't come up with those rates by accident.

So anyway that's the route I am going. Will probably pull the trigger here shortly and hope to install in July.

Glad to see you coming back into things man. I think my heart is set on MCS because I plan to move up to TT and MCS allow you to send in and upgrade if desired.

Considering how many ohlins motorcycle forks and shocks I've revalved over the years on brand new installs no less, ohlins factory setup can be rather wide of the mark.

But if these work to satisfaction then good enough.

Sorry to revive this zombie thread. What are FP shocks. Link?

going on vacation in the Stang, going on twisties in the Colorado Rockies. Want to have a nice setup. My Stang has 70k.
already did control arms and the entire cooling system.
Now I need to address the suspension.
thanx
