Ford track pack - NLA or just backordered?

[WItoTX]

If anyone is looking for the springs, I will have a set for sale around the first of the year. I already have the fronts available, but the rears come off hopefully before Christmas.

FWIW, my springs are the MR springs.

Just wanted to thank everyone in this thread for the suggestions. I was able to acquire the fp sway bars, fp struts/shocks, and fp toe link bearings. I wasn't able to get the springs, so I opted for steedas minimum drop and their front control arms (lateral and tension link with bearings) and bumpsteer kit.

Going from a base GT suspension to the above mentioned is going to be interesting.

I've posted on this a few times, so I just checked to give ya'll an update.

The 2015-2023 MUSTANG TRACK HANDLING PACK currently has an E.T.A. of 7/31/2026.

I went with the BMR Handling Springs. What bump stops are you going to use?

Also, please post up on the Steeda lateral and tension links. Give us some photos and measurement on the actual drop that you get. I am going to run my stock ones first to see what I end up with before spending an additional $800 for the links. Will if I have to and definitely will when they need replacement.

FYI, make sure your springs come with the rubber sleeves (noise isolators) on the spring, and you push them all the way up the spring so they get squeezed by the top hat and don’t slide down or else your front suspension is going to clank and make a ton of noise.

You can see what I mean on my photo. I didn’t do it correctly so I had to remove and redo it. They aren’t up high enough. If it’s listed in the documentation Steeda provides I didn’t see it at the time.

Interesting, these didn't come on the eibach springs in my B12 kit and i haven't had issues. Is this a steeda only thing?

I’m pretty sure it’s a Steeda thing. Going back in the forums there were a ton of complaints on noise and the minimum drop springs got these isolators sometime in 2024. They aren’t compressed in the picture, but with the car weight on the springs the top two coils touch, and then clang when you hit a bump in the road.

For what it’s worth, I’d never pair Steeda min drop springs again with these shocks. Maybe it’s different on the stock shocks. I’ll probably bag the car next time.

It's not specific to Steeda; other springs include them, but we do provide it to eliminate the chatter that the springs touching can cause.

Let me know if I can assist further!

Didn't come with my BMR springs either, no issues with noise.

Paul, when I installed my shocks and struts I checked the bump stops prior to install. They were cut for lowering springs already. It saved a few bucks for now to not have to buy different ones. Also I had a conversation with Kelly from kelltrac (i was planning on ordering his bump stop kit) he said stock would be best if I was keeping the dust boot in the front. Can't recall what if any were his recommendations for rear.

Thanks! I finally went and looked at the shocks and struts and they came with new bump stops. I am going to double check them, but I think that they are sized for the lower springs.

I am not experiencing any harsh sounds when going over bumps but the ride is definitely stiffer than the base GT suspension. It is NOT harsh at all considering I am running 18x10 with 275/40 all around and the roads here in south Florida are generally pretty smooth. I am extremely happy with how it turned out considering this is literally the first time I have altered my suspension on any of my previous cars.
