Although it helped reinvigorate the American performance car movement with concept of offering a lot of bang for not much money; the third generation Fox Chassis Mustang was compromised by a lightweight unibody structure. As power and torque on the car's 5.0 engine increased during the late 1980s, the limitations of the chassis became increasingly apparent with reports of flexing and fatigue under hard driving, causing stress cracks around the floor pans, A and C-pillars.
To help combat the problem, a number of aftermarket companies introduced frame stiffening products, ranging from subframe connectors to full roll cages. One company that pioneered the development of quality chassis and suspension upgrades for Fox Mustangs was Kenny Brown Performance.
Kenny Brown was one of the founders of late-model Mustang performance and was an integral part in helping Steve Saleen's 5.0 LXs dominate the Escort Endurance Road Racing series in the late-1980s before starting his own business catering to high performance upgrades.
After being absent for many years, Kenny Brown's Super Street roll cage is once again available for third generation Mustangs and just like the old days, provides much needed torsional stiffness on the Fox chassis weak points, including the seat mounts, rear torque boxes and roof. The result is improved handling, ride, braking and weight transfer, making the chassis much more compliant for high performance driving, while reducing the risk of flexing or fatigue.
In addition, the Super Street Cage was designed from the outset from easy driver/passenger and cargo access, unlike a number of cages on the market, which severely compromise ingress/egress.
Finished in a black wrinkle powder finish, the Super Street Cage comes with complete mounting hardware and instructions and is engineered for superior quality, durability and installation. In fact, just to make sure, Kenny Brown backs each one with a lifetime guarantee.
