Default 69 suspension packages

Has anyone run a Global west suspension? I am looking at http://www.globalwest.net/Mustang%20...ackage%20#M701
for my 69 mach. I know TCP has a package also (dont like the box look), and was wondering about pro's and con's.

Any other recommendations?


Thanks for the insight

Depends what you are after. If you are going to autocross regularly and compete, spending that kind of money may be worth it. If you will spend most of your miles on the street, just do the following;
replace all rubber with polyurethane
front and rear sway bars
gas shocks
lower the upper A arm per Shelby specs
make sure worn stuff is replaced
wheel alignment
get good and sticky tires
maybe get new springs
maybe lower ride height, but watch out for tire clearance problems
You'll be amazed at the difference!
