Steeda's New S550 Mustang MagneRide Dual Rate Ultimate Handling Lowering Springs

[Voo Doo]

It can take several weeks - where are you taking your measurements from? Here is a video showing the recommended measuring techniques.



Send me your contract info and I’ll have our tech team call you to see if there is anything we can talk through in terms of the install.

So....conflicting information?? Matt at Steeda says center of fender opening to center of wheel hub??
Anyway.. Dr Front 27&7/8”....Dr Rear...28. Then Pass Front ..27&7/8”...Pass Rear...28&1/4 ! Still 1/4” higher on Pass Rear !! Fenderwell gap appears unchanged from stock???? Nothing like the pictures posted of your Steeda Mustang! You say it could take “some time”... how long is “some time” Thanx for the help! Ric

Just ordered these. Can't wait for the install.

Voo Doo, did you clock the bushings? From everything I read that could be the issue if you did not.

You can do it either way on ride height, I like the center of hub to wheel opening as this will be more consistent with different tire aspect ratios.
Please pm your contact info and I will help you with your set up.
Thank you

FINALLY GOT MINE RIGHT!!!!... @SteedaTech ... more info required in the install sheets process. “Bushings must be Clocked before Alignment”....also the comment “they’ll settle”...like in how many days or weeks or like when?? As well...the BULLITT is lower that the GT from the factory !!...

IMPORTANT...measure install before and after...Center of fender well lip to center of hub.

Mike D... I can’t say enough about your Customer Service...Kudos! He called my install man and went thru the procedure to follow...as well, I had my IRS Braces and Bushings/shims installed. I had a full tank of gas and he hung a big guy off the trunk pulling down while the bolts were all Torqued!! Thanx so much Mike!!

Dimensions... Driver & Pass front 14&3/4” ..Driver & Pass rears..both at 15” bang on!!

I need to do this ASAP. I have a small clunk with certain bumps in the front, and the rear creaks when I jack it up a little.

I’m not a novice at this stuff, but I never heard of it before!..so (correct me if I’m wrong guys!!) the Lowering Springs are installed...then on a flat lift with load on the tires...loosen and re-torque rear suspension points which include lower front control arm bolt, out board toe-link, vertical link both points ...then the car will settle and all bolts to be torqued to factory specs! Hint...make sure you have a full tank of gas as well...added weight! You want this puppy to sit!!! .....then get the alignment done!! ASAP!!

Gurus....add what I may have left out!!

On my way to pick my car up. Just had Steeda camber plates and the dual rate lowering springs installed. Can't wait to see how it performs. Should be getting an alignment this week.

Does it require a alignment afterwards? My rear is fully adjustable. Do I need to get the front camber plates or can the front be aligned without them?
