Default Control arms

Hey guys,
I'm in dire need of new upper and lower control arms.
I'm thinking of BBK,
I'm wondering if they're worth all the hype,
I like my ride planted haha
And I feel as if the rear end if all jumpy.
The previous owner also never replaced the quad shocks and they look awful.

Also,
Have you guys noticed any huge differences with lowering springs vs stick?
Thanks guys

We have a great selection here of upper & lower control arms - you can check them out here http://www.steeda.com/1994-1998-mustang-control-arms/

Here is a review on the springs:

SPORT SPRINGS
I installed these springs on my 1997 Mustang GT. The stance was beautiful, but did not compare to the ride. The linear rate allowed my car to ride comfortably when I was running about, but firmed up when I was at the track. The performance continued to improve with speed and the springs would drop an additional 1/4" over 220km/h. I would definitely recommend these springs on any SN95 model.

You can email me at tim@steeda.com if you would like me to put you in contact with one of our suspension experts to help identify the best package for you.

Best Regards,

TJ

I installed the Steeda ones on mine earlier this year, and have been pleased with them. They have those multi-material bushings, which are very important to avoid binding when upgrading from the stock rubber. The BBK ones are right in the same price range, and I like that they have grease fittings. However, it was Steeda's bushing material that was the deciding factor for me, and I made sure to use a healthy amount of grease during installation.

For future reference, all Tech questions should go in the Tech section.
