I want to do some handling upgrades to my car but can not lower it. I am thinking of getting tower strut bars and a MM panhard bar. Anyone have experience with this? Is it worth it. look at my sig for stang info....

 

also what are the best things other than tires to do for handling.

 

k member, control arms, subframe connectors, shocks, caster camber plates, etc.

 

are sway bars, strut bars and the panhard bar helpfull.......I take my car autocrossing and push hard

 

they would probably make your car much stiffer, and more go kart ish, so for autocross, i would think that's good.

 

The Cobra sway bars would be a nice addition, pan-hard bar wouldn't hurt but be careful not to make it so stiff you lift a rear tire in the turns. A Watts link is something you might want to look into. It centers the rear without controlling rear travel. Front strut bar and rear shock bar will hep as well as a nice weld-in sub frame like the one from Global West. You could also achieve better handling through springs without lowering the car. I'm not a spring tech, but by changing spring compression, resistance and travel makes a huge difference in handling.

if auto crossing a cheap way to lower your times are some race tires. they help sooo much

 

thats what i was gonna do thank you so much for reminding me. about 3 months ago i decided around Christmas time id get a panhard bar and then i forgot what i wanted.. so thank you for reminding me. Im gonna order a panhard bar for Christmas.

A panhard bar is a very good handling mod you can defiantly feel a difference
