What else do you need to do to make your mustang handle better, get rid of wheel hop etc?
When I drive on a bumpy highway (like wicked expansion joints) it feels like my car slides sideways a bit and I lose control for a brief second. It's really bad in turns. It gets all jellowy. I used to have drive a bmw and it didn't do that. It would slide sideways a little but it never shimmied and I always felt like I was in complete control.
I know springs are part of it, but if you got a kit like this, what else do you need to do? Are there other parts you need to go along with lowered springs? (steering parts etc.?)
I'm thinking strut tower braces to stiffen things up, but what else should I get? On smooth road the car handles awesome, corners great etc. It actually feels as good as a beamer if the road is smooth. It's just when bumps get involved it gets squirrely.
What should I do to solve this issue? I don't have power adders or anything like that yet and my car is completely unmodified. Hook me up man!

Just my $.2 Viza, but this is my planned suspension upgrade path:
1) CHE K-member brace with engine torque limiters. (On order)
Reason: There is a GREAT thread that Riven started about the benefits of this setup.

If I understand the physics properly, it prevents your engine/transmission from "torquing over" at high RPMs, which can cause you to miss shifts and contributes to the lurching motion of the car when you change gears.
This doesn't affect the handling of the car so much, just the overall smoothness of the ride.
2) Eibach springs with the Tokico D-spec adjustable shocks.
Reason: F1fan likes these two parts almost as much as curing cancer and eliminating world hunger.

He really seems to know what he's talking about with these parts. The benefits are fairly obvious: lowering the center of gravity causes with increase stability.
3) BMR adjustable lower control arms
Reason: after lowering the car, these help keep things lined up, help in corners, and help eliminate wheel- hop.

Look up Crazyal's posts for good suspension information as well. He's one of the other goto guy here in the forums.
Actually, check out that last link for the rest of the goodies. Al does a great job of detailing what is needed for a good suspension setup.
