G’day guys.

New to the mustangs with my 1100hp GT convertible 2015.

Built motor and two snails jammed onto it.

After looking at some videos on why these like to get slithery I’m looking for parts to help with the following...

1. Stop wheel hop.
2. Strengthening the body - have front strut tower brace.
3. To better keep this in a straight line with out the ass going all over the road.
4. Keep these tires planted on the ground.

Car is built for dig and roll racing on and off tracks.


I do know I’m still trying to learn a new platform with new driving tactics. I come from larage body dodge.

Any help you can provide or a shopping list would be awesome!!!

Unfortunately many of the best IRS parts wont fit a convertible. Both BMR CB010 and the Steeda IRS bushing/centering kit will work.

Subscribed for more ideas.

Good Morning Lucas, down below I am going to break down what I recommend to you for straight line racing. Since you have a convertible you are a bit restricted on bracing but the items I'm going to list have been proven on several different record holding cars.


1. Subframe bushing support and alignment kit. - https://www.steeda.com/steeda-s550-subframe-alignment-and-support-kit.html This kit is going to eliminate Subframe movement front to back and side to side as well as top to bottom.

2. Rear lower control arm spherical bearing. - https://www.steeda.com/steeda-s550-...spherical-bearing-2015-2016-all-555-4117.html These bearings will play a huge role in eliminating deflection, ensuring your tires hook immediately upon acceleration.

3. Differential bushing inserts with upgraded bolt kit. - https://www.steeda.com/Steeda-S550-...olt-Upgrade-Combo--2015-2019-GT-_p_16599.html These bushings will minimize pinion angle changes, increase traction, eliminate wheel hop and differential deflection.

4. Adjustable camber arms. - https://www.steeda.com/steeda-s550-mustang-rear-adjustable-camber-arms-15-16-all-555-4123.html These arms will allow you properly set camber in the rear for Drag racing. They will also your supension to articulate the way it should.

5.Vertical links with Delrin bushings. - https://www.steeda.com/steeda-s550-mustang-billet-aluminum-vertical-links-2015-all-555-4121.html These will not flex under load like the stock links.

6. Rear drag sway bar. - https://www.steeda.com/steeda-mustang-drag-race-rear-sway-bar-2015-2016-gt-ecoboost-v6-555-1018.html This bar will provide substantially reduced body roll to support high horsepower applications through any drag race requirements.

7. Adjustable Pro-action shocks and struts paired with Drag springs and Billet shock mounts. - https://www.steeda.com/steeda-s550-mustang-pro-action-shocks-struts-kit-555-8157.html
https://www.steeda.com/Steeda-S550-Mustang-Drag-Springs--Linear-2015-2019-GT_p_13500.html
https://www.steeda.com/steeda-s550-mustang-billet-rear-shock-mount-12mm-rear-shocks-555-8152.html
These shocks and struts along with springs and mounts have been proven to work on our own Steeda "Silver Bullet" drag car. The car currently holds the 2018+ NA world record at 10.36 @ 131 and has seen short times of 1.48.

This recipe has seen a 1.18 short time Jon Lund's record holding s550. I am a SME on our own personal drag car and can provide you with any additional information you need in setting up your car to get down the track the fastest it can go. All the parts listed are currently on Sale for the Holidays but I will gladly tighten up the pricing for a package deal. If you have any additional questions, my name is Jigar feel free to reach out to me via PM, email, or a phone call.

@Jigar@Steeda That is awesome, thank you!

Would you or someone @ Steeda do the same with emphasis on backroads and occasional HPDE (vs straight line) still being a semi-daily?
I will gladly get you one made, just bear with me. :like:
