Default Sugestions

Current Setup

Roush Rear Springs
CHE Performance: 2005 Mustang Tubular Rear Lower Control Arms

Went to a shop to have the "Spohn Adj. Rear Upper Control Arm Mustang 2005+" install, and they said it won't fit and took pics for proof. They didn't like the product, and mentioned how cheap/weak looking the Che LCA looked.

Suggested that I go with the following to make things right. I'm just looking to bring the pinion angle back into tolerance due to the drop made by installing the Roush springs.

BMR Tubular Upper Control Arm w/poly bushing 2005+ Mustang 005499 $129.95

BMR Adjustable Lower -Race- Control Arms w/rod ends 2005+ Mustang
005363 $249.95


BMR Tubular Adjustable Panhard Rod 2005+ Mustang---they said the axel was off side to side, and I would need this.
005366 $129.95


BMR Bolt-on Control Arm Relocation Brackets 2005+ Mustang
005502 $129.95

I have had nothing but success using the BMR parts. They fit great.

My only suggestions are to use the "Street" combo type LCAs (Poly on one end and rod-end on the other), they are much quieter on the street than the race version.

Also, while you're down there, throw on the BMR panhard bar brace. It is very inexpensive and is very quick to install, as long as you're doing everything else, do this as well.

Make sure the shop welds on the LCA relocation brackets.

I use exactly what CA (do we call him Crazy or Al) recomended. I have nothing but good to say about the BMR stuff. Very good fit and very solid products. I'm sure others compare, but I personally have no experience with them.
