Magnaride question

[smokescreens]

Hell, i felt my stock mr was to soft, lol. Even after my steeda ultimate track springs i still ride in track mode allmost all the time.

What car are you comparing it too? I assume you are comparing it to your last car.

Im surprised at how low i am and i still have not rubbed ground yet. My springs lowered my pp1 car another 1/2 inch.

Was Magneride standard on the Bullitt? I thought it was optional. Is it listed on your window sticker?

Standard in the EU, an option in the US.

Ride quality is very subjective. I like my ride firm, but still comfortable. I have FR magnaride suspension on my bullitt. I usually drive in sports. Also use track on lousy river roads. Firm but still smooth.
Not sure what kind of roads the op is driving on either. Could be road quality? Maybe a flash or reset of the shocks?

Thanks for the quick reply.

so there is no setting I can use to change the soft > hard or vice versa? Car is at 5200 miles. It’s annoying when you can feel almost all bumps on the road. The whole point of paying extra for magnaride was enjoying a smooth ride lol.

Thanks

I don't think magneride was ever intended to turn mustang into a floating Cadillac despite the description . I feel that it's much more about handling performance..

Mine was an option we paid for along with Recaros

Roads I am referring to are just regular Atlanta interstates or county roads. Maybe I should keep it on sport/track for better ride comfort.
how do I reset or flash the shocks? Take it to a dealer?

Not really sure if i have an answer other than the default setting normal is softer than sport plus and track.
My suspension is not stock. I had the ford racing M- 9602 -M put on my car. Firm suspension but smoother in some ways.
What if you hooked up with another person with a PP1 mustang or bullitt with magnaride and compair the ride to yours?

I've never considered mine "bumpy" unless it's in Sport or Track mode. Almost sounds like the Magneride somehow isn't in Normal mode.

If you're ever around Dothan you can compare it to mine. I don't plan on being around Atlanta any time soon.

Ride is very subjective, I like normal mode for general driving around Austin, a quick flick of the switch to sport+ from time to time, but the ride is noticeably firmer in sport+, sometimes unpleasantly so.

Standard in the EU, an option in the US.

Standard in Canada, too. I think the only option here was the Recaros, and maybe the colour (black or green) if you consider that an option.
(Other Canadian owners, am I missing anything?)

The normal setting is smooth, for the car keeping the handling it does, Go drive a c4 vette with z51 to get an idea of how far we have come.

Are you referring to these?

I have the dual sports on mine and love them. The spring rates on mine begin where the progressive's rates end. I do like a firm ride but it is not for everybody. The dual rate springs also lower the car slightly less than the progressives do.
