I found a set of upper and lower control arms for right around 300 together. Does brand really make a diffrence? What brand does everyone have?

I dont have umm, soo my opinion will be worthless. But judging from everything else in the world, expecially cars, namebrand or well known brands are usually the way to go, especially when you are considering the integrity of your MUSTANG!

I have Granatellis and am quite happy with them. Brand really doesn't matter and adjustables don't come into play unless you are throwing MAD HP down.

MM, Granatelli, Steeda, stang suspension are all good ones- You really pay for the name of MM and steeda however so I would just go with some good Granatellis!

Hey code- did you notice a solid increase in rear traction and stability in the turns when you installed the granatellis? I'm seriously considering a set but I'm seeking performance for the 60' and turns alike.

You can get the Granatellis for $160. Code is putting down 340+ with those, so you should be fine. The $140 you save can be used for other mods.

Machwon, I have the same CAs and love them. I have noticed a big difference in turns, but not as much in acceleration. Probably because I have very few ponies in my stable.
