[QUOTE="Puluke, post: 15146089, member: 155125"] Continuing my search to an answer for the base gt350 suspension, I found a general description on the Ford media centre. Copied below is the write up:- Suspension tuned for maximum performance on road and track Handling is the performance playground of Shelby GT350, and the car’s suspension is heavily revised to maximize cornering performance. Shelby Mustang features all-new aluminum front knuckle, hub and bearing assemblies that are stiffer and lighter than the standard parts. Rigid bushings are fitted to the control arms and subframes for improved steering feedback. Heavy-duty bearings are added for increased lateral stiffness. Front and rear antiroll bars are increased in diameter for improved body control. In an example of obsession to detail, one side of the rear suspension features a new counter-wound rear spring and matching rear control arm so the left and right sides are mirror images – perfecting wheel motion." Suppose that answers a few of my questions. So what about the struts? Are they nothing more then struts from the 2015 GT? Pasted below is the link to the Ford media centre, from which this excerpt was selected from:- [url]https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/products/cars/mustang/2016-gt350-350r-press-kit.html[/url] [/QUOTE]
