[War Machine 115]

Ok guys I need some help here. I'm looking to upgrade my suspension and just make it better for overall use. I'm not too sure of what all would be good for daily use and a few trips to the track here and there.

I plan to get a Spydershaft and Tokico D-Specs. What else would be a good idea? Upper and lower control arms, A-arms, K-member, etc.? And would adjustable stuff be worth while or is non adjustable fine? I've been looking mostly at BMR stuff but I'm not too sure of what all would make a good set-up.

What are you looking for? Straight line performance or handling?

What are you looking for? Straight line performance or handling?

Just a good general mix. I'm not looking for just a straight line drag set-up or a road racing set-up. I like to mess around from light to light with my friends but I also want to be able to race down the highway and have good handling.

I pretty much just want to know what will give me a good balance since it's a daily driver.

I'm not too smart with suspension stuff and right now I'm looking for ideas, suggestions, and pricing.

control arms and welded sub frame connectors would be a good start.

Steeda has some pretty good packages as well for whatever you want.

You won't need SFCs for a while with the S197s.

Here is a good complete kit.

BMR 05-07 GT LEVEL 1 Handling Package [HPE001] - $1,445.95

Then you could add these.

BMR 05-07 GT Billet Lower Control Arms w/ Poly Bushings [TCA027] - $229.95

Steeda's Stop the Hop Pak will work if you're staying fairly stock on the power front. If you're kicking it up a notch it wont work.

For wheel hop....some sort of sturdy lower control arm (I use BMR billet...the squared ones with poly bushings). I use a J&M upper control arm (adjustable so I could reset my pinion angle). I also use D-specs and Ford Racing lowering springs (and a bunch of other stuff, but I'm making a bunch of power).

Good luck and enjoy your car!
