[QUOTE="UnleashedBeast, post: 10202256, member: 112023"] 500 miles ago I installed the replacement -B mounts on my GT500 with Steeda Competition springs. The ride is better than stock and noise free. No more clunking and the front end is dead silent, the way it should have been from the factory. I also carefully disassembled the new mounts before installation and added a lot of extra water resistant grease to the bearings. I have no doubts that this mount will last a long time. The Competition springs lowered my car about the same as the Steeda Sport springs lowers a 4.6L GT. The car doesn't nose dive on hard braking and handles a lot better in the corners. It also has a better ride than stock and no increased harshness is felt over bumps. These are linear springs, not progressive, and Sam Strano recommended I try them. He was right, they are awesome for the heavier Shelby. They won't satisfy those who insist their car be in the weeds (looks as if the car is sitting on the tire), but they do eliminate the 4x4 look our cars have from the factory. [/QUOTE]
