If you own a Mustang you definitely want to make sure it can perform to the best of its ability. The new Mustang S550 is seen as one of the most innovative cars Ford has produced in recent years. Bringing many changes to the Mustang platform. One of the major innovations Ford has made to the S550 is the new independent rear differential. Ford has brought new power to the S550 and further improved the Mustang brand, solidifying its stance in the car community. It has become a car for enthusiasts and every day drivers alike having a variety of price ranges and modifications to suit everyone.
When one of our close friends came to us looking to get a custom suspension setup for his brand new S550 we were more than happy to help set him out.
The Plan & Build
Increase comfort, performance and handling by upgrading the Mustangs suspension. Providing greater control over the S550 whilst increasing the Mustangs overall traction. To do this we had to get a hold of few specialist manufacturers to see if they had the parts to completely overhaul the performance and handling of the S550. Luckily SuperPro was just finishing the development of their new Mustang S550 Roll Control range. So SuperPro really opened the range of upgrades we could provide this Mustang! Our next hurdle was deciding what to use for the main suspension system. Our good friends at Polyair reached out and proposed we have a look at their performance air systems. They had the perfect system for reliability and functionality so now we were set.
We have added every part we used on this Mustang build to a list and have added some other recommendations to help suit everyone’s budget.
