FP Magneride handling Kit Installed

[rcl4668]

Hi, thanks for info interested to see when you check part numbers for anti roll bars from front & the rear check out to be the same as the Bullitt which is fitted with PPI as standard.

The chart above was posted in a previous thread (perhaps by Matt Moran?) asking about the relative thickness of the rollbars used in OEM, FP and aftermarket suspension packages. If I am reading the chart correctly it looks like the swaybars used in the FP package that Schwerin installed are even thicker than the thickness of the swaybars on the PP1. Please anyone, chime in if this is not the case as I am also thinking about installing this FP package and want to know for sure.

Any issues with the alignment? Did you need camber bolts?

No bolts needed. FP sent my dealer recommended alignment and they used those specs.

This is correct, the bars that were taken off were 22.2 rear and 32 front. The new bars were noticeably larger.
For reference the GT350 uses a 34mm front and (16-18)22.2 or (19+) 24mm rear. So the FP bars are an upgrade for the GT350 also.

I got this kit installed as well and the alignment shop I went to was giving me a hard time about needing them. My fronts were both -1.9 each. What were your specs before and after if you don't mind be asking.

Not sure what before was. This is after.

Thanks! I saw Ford performance posted the alignment specs for the 15-17 kit to be -1.5 front camber and -1.98 for the rear. It looks like they recommend similar results for the 18+ with magneride for the front. My before is close to your numbers except I'm -1.9 in the front. I think I'll get camber bolts and go closer to the factory -1 spec for the front.

I put the bars on my 2015. The front was signficantly larger. No increase in NVH but a firmer ride. A bit too firm for me. But, maybe the magneride fixes this issue...

So forgive my ignorance, but is there an official/recommended Ford Performance alignment spec for the installation of this package? If so, how does one get that?

None came in my box but my dealer said FP provided them with one.
