im trying to find out if its possble to do a whole suspension set up for around $750. shocks, struts, springs and sway bars and all....front and rear, im not sure how possible it is but thought id see whats out there.

 

The only set-up/package I can think of that comes close is Saleen's suspension package... I believe it has shocks, struts, springs, and a sway bar (not sure whether its front or rear)... I believe you can get that set-up for about $800....

Your other option is to piece together something.... shocks/struts (non-adjustable) approx. $400, springs approx. $200, and a rear sway bar approx. $150.... You may also try and add an adjustable PHB. approx $125-$150.

That my $.02!

As said above you can probably piece something together, but you would probably be a little over your #. BMR (http://bmrfabrication.com/) has some very affordable/good suspension items.

PS Unless you plan to install, dont forget the labor....

 

What you need to spend your money on depends on what you want the suspension to do after it has been done.

For example are you looking for the ultimate in handling at the limit for road course track days or just looking to lower the car for looks? How much are you willing to trade off worse NVH for better handling? What problems are you experiencing now that make you want to change the handling?

Knwoing what your objectives are will allow people to make meaningful suggestions.

Also don't forget the cost of a good alignment after doing the work.

 

im wanting to lower it and get better handling for maybe some road course, but mainly lower and get some better handling round corners so i dont have to let of the gas much...i do plan to do the install myself

 

Jegs has a the Roush suspension kit for under $750.00. Sway bars,coils, and shocks and struts.
Jegs part # 823-401296
prices may have gone up a bit but I'm not sure.

 

i just did a search on there with that part number and got nothing...maybe u can find it and post a link

 

For $720 this is what I did. $500 for my d-specs, $130 for the Roush rear springs, and $90 for a used Stedda adjustable panhard bar bought in the MF classifieds.

 

I called up Jegs and that part # was a misprint in their catalog .My bad, I'm sorry for posting that part #. They messed up a brake kit for for Mustangs by $500.00 that I checked on also.

 

thats ok, i was getting happy for a min..lol


(For $720 this is what I did. $500 for my d-specs, $130 for the Roush rear springs, and $90 for a used Stedda adjustable panhard bar bought in the MF classifieds. )

i think ill do something like that...the d-specs are the shocks and struts, right? why didnt u get the front springs, or did u change all 4 shocks and stuff but stay stock springs in the front..
