Default Shelby 2008 suspension part better then my 2013 gt suspension?

I can have 2x lower control arm ford racing oem shelby lca with the stock uca all oem stuff, i know the lower control arm are an improvement, but what about the uca? Is it the same part used on gt?
I can have everything for 140$ just wondering if there is any difference,
I can also have a 2013 shelby front sway bar but yet again i dont know
if it is the same part from the 5.0


God my english is horrible.

Your English is probably better than most people's French that are on here, nes pas? Unfortunately I don't know the answer to your question. I believe the lower control arms are the most important ones if you are looking for better grip and launch control. The stock UCA is not adjustable, so if you are putting lowering springs on the back you may want an adjustable one. You should be able to search the web and find out if the Shelby sway bar is different from the one on the GT ( I would guess that it is).

Keep this topic near the top, someone will read this who will be able to give you some good advice. You might want to copy this topic to the handling forum also.

Moved your thread, it's a little better in this section.
Si vous s'il vous plait (wow, my high school french is really rusty, not even sure if I spelled it correctly now and can't find the grammar marks on this keyboard)

The Shelby suspension is not a significant upgrade compared to most of the aftermarket manufacturers' suspension components.

UPR Products control arms are much better quality and performance than the OEM Shelby parts.
