2007 Shelby GT vs. Mustang GT Suspension

68cobra · Dec 30, 2009

Can anyone help me with the differences in a 2007 Shelby GT & a stock Mustang GT suspension?

Sway bars, spring rates, any & everything that differentiates the two.

As far as that goes, is there a stat sheet that spells out ALL of the differences?

Thanks,

Yes, they are all different. I am looking at the Shelby sticker that came off the windshield of my 07 Shelby GT. It has the Ford Racing Handling Package{FR3}.Front and rear dampers [heavy duty race type], lowering springs[ft, rr, stiffer, about 1 &1/2 inches lower], front and rear sway bars[stiffer], and a strut tower brace. all in all, a very nice handling car, especially when you get it on the track. Hope this helps.

Thanks for your response!

If there is anyone who knows specific spring rates & swaybar measurements, that would be helpful too. I realize they are different, but I'd like to know the exact rates. I'm going to run this car in a NASA racing series. I need to know what will be legal & what won't.

I've driven one of these cars on-track a couple of times & it handled great!

Thanks,
