Ford Mustang Suspension Handling Kits

The Ford Mustang is not only one of the most important and famous muscle cars of all time, but one of the most famous and important cars of any style. With iconic and timeless style, a rich history, powerful engines, and trend-setting performance, Mustangs have continually set the bar high for American sports and muscle cars. And enthusiasts have only pushed that bar higher by turning modifications and upgrades into an art. Mustangs are, of course, best known for the horsepower coming out of the engine. But the handling ability has often been overlooked. In order to get the most out of the car’s steering, Mustang suspension upgrades are a common modification for owners. The best and easiest way to improve the handling is with a suspension handling kit, and we sell a wide variety of kits from some of the best performance brands around. If you’re looking to improve the handles, no matter the era, then you’ve come to the right place.

Ford Mustang Suspension Handling Kits

Ford Mustang suspension handling kits are your key to getting a Mustang that not only looks like it owns the road, but actually does – with crisp, fast handling that will make you feel like a top stunt driver. Lowering your ride gives your Mustang a fiercer look, while winning big improvements in handling, both in terms of good performance while cornering and highly responsive turn-in.

Modern companies offer suspension handling kits for all generations from the 1979-1993 Foxbody on up to the present, with kits already available for the 2015 Mustang and its sixth generation powers. Various kits offer help at dealing with wheel hop (all too frequent with stock suspension when you tend to apply a lot of torque), body roll, and other problems. Best of all, they make your Mustang more fun to drive – and that's the whole point of a muscle car to begin with.

Earlier Mustang models have only a few kits available, though these are enough to give a powerful upgrade to both stance and handling. There are many more options for recent model years, giving you the choices you need to enhance your Pony's suspension in exactly the right way to suit your driving style. Many of these kits comes with good warranties and have metal parts coated in powder-coat or chrome to resist rust for many years.

Why a Mustang Suspension Kit Can Make a Big Difference in Performance

As the name suggests, suspension handling kits are all about improving handling. By upgrading the quality of your Mustang’s suspension, you make it significantly more balanced on the road. This allows you to not only take turns at higher speeds, but maintain the best line through turns, and accelerate strongly when exiting out of the turns. Mustangs may be known for their power, but every driver wants to be able to take a turn quickly and confidently, and there’s no better way to do that than by installing Mustang suspension upgrades on your car.

Can You Install Mustang Suspension Kits at Home?

Absolutely! A Mustang suspension handling kit is a great do it yourself car upgrade, as long as you have experience working on cars, a garage with the right tools, and a high level of comfort. Installing suspension upgrades is far from the hardest modification, but it’s far from the easiest, too. As long as you have the skills, tools, and comfort, you’ll have a great time making this upgrade. But if you’re new to working on cars, then play it safe and hire a mechanic to install your suspension kit.

What’s the Difference Between Suspension Handling Kits and Lift Kits?

There are two primary types of suspension kits: handling kits and lift kits. Lift kits are more common to spot, and you see them all the time on trucks. They’re simply kits that lift the body of the car higher up, which is mostly just for aesthetics. They don’t actually improve the handling performance. Handling kits, on the other hand, are more popular with muscle cars and sports cars, because they can dramatically improve the car’s performance, even though they’re less visually noticeable. No matter what kind of Mustang you have, we’ve got suspension handling kits that you can purchase and install. Our sales techs are waiting to help you find the perfect suspension kit for you, no matter your needs.
