Roush Trak Pak

you realize that is only shocks/struts + springs + caster/camber plates right?
hardly worth $1,500 + shipping.
it doesn't even include better sway bars. You can do at least as good if not better with other products and for at least $500 cheaper.
Hell, you can grab GT500KR shocks/springs for $400. Lowers you over 1" at the same time.

this suspension also doesn't include control arms, brackets or a panhard bar.
if you want a car that will handle, get the parts/pieces elsewhere IMO. You can fully replace your entire suspension with better components that will make the car handle 100% better for less money.
yep, I oversimplified the kit. But what I said is true. You are paying in triple if not quadrouple the price for some coil-overs...aka shocks/springs. And not the best ones at that.
all so you can change the ride height occasionally. I personally would get the front height set at a certain hieght and never touch again. Then maybe buy 2 different sets of rear springs. one set for street, one set for strip. take you 5 minutes to swap out and you save 1/2 the price.

yes, the KR springs are for a 5.4 4v motor.
I'm still trying to find out if the 200-250 lb differenece will have a GT riding higher up front compared to the way a GT500 would sit.
It's a 1" drop on the GT500 when you install the KR shocks/struts/springs...which is why I'm considering the swap. That, and you can get the entire GT500 KR front/rear assembly for under $400 right now

if you have your heart set on the Roush setup, cool. Just wanting to point out that there are better setups available for cheaper. Especially as you will still need at a minimum lower control arms, panhard bar, relocation brackets, sway bars if you plan on racing the car in such a manner that would justify the Track Pack
