Default UMI Suspension Components

Until December 24th, we are having a UMI Suspension Christmas sale!

All Mustang UMI suspension components are 20 % off with free shipping for any orders over 150.00 within the continental 48 states.

Any suspension packages/kits will be 15 % off with free shipping for orders over 150.00 as well (within the continental U.S).

This is a FANTASTIC bargain.

Due to the high demand for parts during this sale and the holiday season, it will be 1-2 weeks before the parts can ship

Not all the parts are listed on our web site so you will have to call us to order at 877-955-4896. You can find the list of parts at: http://www.umiperformance.com/mustang

Here is some tech info to help you choose what will work best for your Mustang suspension upgrade!

Panhard Rods

These control the side to side movements of the differential under the vehicle. An adjustable panhard rod will allow you to precisely center the differential under the vehicle for optimum performance. It will also allow you the maximum amount of tire clearance in the fenders. An adjustable "on car" panhard rod doesn't have to be removed from the car to do the actual adjustments.

Rear Lower & Upper Control Arms

These help to keep the tires planted to the ground. They can help eliminate wheel hop and improve your traction.

Strut Tower Brace

Helps to preserve your alignment during hard corning by limiting the movement of the strut towers. Also helps to prevent cowl shake in convertibles and squeaks and rattles by increasing the structure of the car.

Subframe Connectors

Reinforce the chassis to provide better ride quality, handling and launches. The installation of subframe connectors will also significantly improve the "tightness" of the vehicle and make it feel much more solid and new.

They are a very nice component and everything UMI builds is top notch quality. They are a weld in design which will give you the most chassis reinforcement and doesn't suffer the bolt elongation problems that bolt in designs have.

Please note they will not fit convertibles but everyone else can benefit from the upgrade.

In our experience, a set of SFC's can make an older car feel newer again. It's amazing how much of an improvement they make.

but the garage did a poor job on installing them also they did not fit QUITE as nice as the newer style which REALLY hug the car all the way down giving maximum ground clearance, I truly love them and think that they are the best subframe connectors out there
