Fellow Mustang6G'ers,


After a lot of reading I ordered some parts for car to build over the winter. I intend to use this as a short range daily driver and fun weekend build. Now, I just wait it out for parts to arrive.


Here is the list, I already have the Ford Racing sway bars and the CB005 lockout kit.


2015-19 Mustang Ford Performance Track Shock & Strut Kit

BMR 083R springs

Steeda billet shock mounts

Steeda Steeda S550 Mustang Front Roll Center & Bumpsteer Correction Kit

2015-19 Mustang Ford Performance IRS Rear Toe Link Kit

2015-19 Mustang Ford Performance Jounce Bumper Kit

Ford Performance Mustang Strut Tower Brace (15-18 GT/EcoBoost)


I also bought a 3:73 gear set and install kit as well as a set of Corbeau LG1 seats, because well, the stock seats just suck.

Thoughts on this build up or anything else that might be helpful that I can add?

Looks great to me. I wouldn't add anything until you notice it needs more. That will be a killer setup.

That's a good list.

Maybe some camber plates? Probably not strictly required, but I like having more camber than stock allows.

Oh actually I should say that all the cars have the PP toe link. What you want is the toe-knuckle bearing. Unless that is what you ordered but mistyped.

Either way that's a great list and the car will improve significantly. See how it feels and get used to it.

I ordered both the bearing and the toe link kit. I guess I dont' need the toe link kit, just replace the bearing?

Also, I am reading up on how to install the seats. eek.
