I would recommend using Global West. Here is what Global West recommended for my setup: (Front) lower control Arm bushings) (Rear) Lower Control Arms Trac-Link Bar which links the rear end to the tranny. If you get rear upper and lower then you definately need to get a trac-link cause the upper will 'bind' your suspension. What are you looking to do? Drag race, Carve Corners, or both? I would call up Global west...they can recommend some good stuff. They want to charge me $2400 for a complete suspension. FRONT ----- Lower control arm bushings 680 springs Double Adjustable Koni's Caster/Camber plates REAR ---- Lower Control Arms Specially designed springs rated by HP Double Adjustable Koni's Trac-link Bar It will be setup for Drag racing, but I can adjust the Koni's for carving corners. ------------------ '94 Cobra 308ci, ported GT-40 heads, Crane 2031 cam .513"/.529" lift 276°/282° duration, 70mm TB, Custom 80mm MAF, JMS chip, Vortech S-trim 8#, MSD, TREX fuel pump, Accel coil, 3.55's, FMS 1 5/8 headers, BBK Offroad H-pipe, and 2-chamber flows. 1994 Mustang Cobra Check out the pics of my Motor Buildup! |
If you are interested in twisties go with the Globe West/SVO lower control arms and the heavy duty SVO uppers. If you are interested in drag racing or if you are on a budget Factory Five Racing makes a real nice quality set of uppers and lowers for $216 shipped to your door. In either case you should also have your torque boxes welded up.
Hope this helps. Joel |
