Thanks for the link. very informative. By the way, what kind of tires are you guys running on the strip/street for a n/a car?

I put the BMRLCA and relcation brackets on and the difference was amazing. No more wheel hop. Therear-end stopped swaying to the sideon shifts. But, they transfer more noise because of the harder bushing.

Will the Shelby GT500 LCAs do the job for a street/strip car?

Are you lowering....then no...otherwise you can get away with it probably. Its pretty clear in CrazyAls post what is needed and why.

well.... Steeda was not mentioned above... they too are very reputable... I know crazyAl prefers BMR in some cases. My speed shop - Realspeed in NY - is a big proponent of Steeda's parts... Dan was there 8 years... and I totally trust him on Stangs!

I dropped of my GT tonight for
1) Steeda tublar LCA
2) Steeda relocation brackets
3) Steeda Comp Adj UCA
4) Steeda Adj Panhard Bar
5) Steeda Panhard Brace
6) Camber Bolts
I can't wait to rip up some pavement when its done!!!

I'm running the new Nitto Red line tires. (255/45ZR18's) on 18x9 inch rims. I just ordered BMR's LCA's and Brackets yesterday. I amgetting wheel hop and spinning them all through. 1st gear and barking them in 2nd gear.

Don't forget CHE. They are also very reputable for suspension parts. And their prices are pretty descent also.
DynoJoe has a members only sale going on at another site for CHE products. Nice pricing and free shipping.
+1 - you can't go wrong with the BMR, CHE, or Metco - those are the only 3 worth a crap IMO. And no - not all CA's are created eqaul - especially the eurethane bushings and clearance.
