Default Ordered the FRPP Handling Pack

After 54,000 miles the shocks/struts on my Mustang are wasted. I looked around for options and settled on the FRPP FR3 handling Pack. http://www.fordracingparts.com/perfo...cepackages.asp

There are better shocks/struts out there. There are better springs and better anti-roll bars, but I could find no better value for a complete susension package than the FR3 pack, and all specifically tuned for the Mustang. $999 for everything and your Mustang is handling nearly like an FR500C. So they say.

Has anyone installed this yet? Any installation issues or other things I should watch out for during installation. I know they have this option installed on the Hertz mustang and it's getting good reviews on handling.

Your thoughts appreciated.

54,000? Wow you must either love to drive or have a horrible commute. Agree that the FRPP package is a good deal. Haven't heard any negative feedback. Would be even better if it included new LCAs and panhard bar.

I have an easy 30 minute commute. I just LOVE to drive this car. I'll go 300 miles for a cheeseburger.

Some have said I need and intervention.

Well, look at the bright side. At least you don't have to worry about voiding your factory warranty by adding mods!
