For those in the know, are there any rear suspension differences between the GT500 and lesser Mustangs? Not talking half shafts, sway bars, or springs, just the rest including the mounting.

Curious if the rear cradle has any sort of OEM lockout or such, since the cradle isolation on the S550 is such a floppy turd. If not, a cradle lockout would make an already stellar car more of a standout.

When I was playing with my undercarriage :giggle:, the only difference that I immediately saw was that the LCA, knuckles, and the vertical links are different, everything else looked the same. No lockouts noticed. I will more than likely slap in a set of Steeda subframe alignment pins and call it done on this car.

With the quarter mile times these things are cranking out already, I would have guessed some sort of cradle lockout had to be in effect. Crazy.
