Even more modern aftermarket component options are available for later fourth-gen 'Stangs, when the New Edge style rolled out and improved heads put more horsepower at the driver's beck and call. 1999-2004 Mustang suspension handling kits give your late Fox 4 a meaner, lower stance and sharper handling that gives you plenty of cornering power while keeping your ride smooth and your passengers comfortable.
Companies such as Eibach and Maximum Motorsports offer kits that make swapping out the stock suspension for something better a smooth, successful process. Lowering springs drop both front and rear somewhere between 1.5 and 2 inches, providing that extra stability that makes a huge difference in skimming around a corner or handling your car precisely during demanding maneuvers. Even daily driving is easier and more fun with better handling, while these kits prevent excessive body roll.
Rear suspension kits address specific rear quadrant problems, such as wheel hop when you slam on the accelerator from a standing start. Improved bushings help cut out wheel hop so your 'Stang's torque catapults it forward instead of upward off the road. These kits include most or all required parts and are manufactured to topnotch standards using tough, long-lasting modern materials.
How a 99-04 Mustang Suspension Kit Will Dramatically Improve Your Car’s Performance
Simply put, suspension kits make your Mustang handle the road a lot better. You’ll feel more grip when you take a turn, and it will feel more balanced and responsive as you’re turning the steering wheel. This will allow you to brake later into the turn, hit the apex at an optimal angle, and accelerate more strongly out of the turn. Improving performance doesn’t just mean coaxing every last bit of horsepower possible out of the engine. It also means being able to take the turns quickly and with great balance, and a suspension kit will help you do exactly that.
Should You Buy a Suspension Kit or Purchase the Parts Individually?
While many people upgrade their handling with a suspension kit, others choose to buy the suspension parts separately. Either option works, but we always recommend buying a kit over individual parts. The main reason for this is that kits ensure that you have all the pieces you need to upgrade your SN95 Mustang’s suspension, while also making sure that all of the components are compatible with each other. It’s also more affordable to buy a kit than to buy all the pieces individually, and it’s best to upgrade all of the suspension than just a few of the pieces.
Can You Install a 99-04 Mustang GT Suspension Kit in Your Garage?
It entirely depends on how experienced and comfortable you are working on your Mustang. If you’re the kind of Mustang enthusiast with a garage full of tools that you’ve already used plenty, then installing a suspension handling kit will not only be easy, but quick and fun, as well. But it does require a serious level of comfort and experience in the garage, so if you’re unsure, uncomfortable, or inexperienced, then let a professional mechanic handle this job. If you’re ready to improve your handling with a suspension kit, then our sales techs are ready to help you find the right product for you and your car. We’ve got a lot of options for SN95 Mustang suspension kits, and we’re confident we can get you back on the road driving better than ever before.
