Control arms or lift bars? I use my mustang as a daily driver car but every now and then I take it to the track. The car is equiped with 4:10s and a procharger, the car is putting out 390rwhp and 410rwt. I have a major traction problem and I was wondering what people recommend for traction other then drag slicks. I heard that the lift bars are really hard on the torque boxes and that the aluminum bushings make a ton of road noise. On the other hand theres the option of just getting better control arms or adjustable control arms, I was wondering how they would compare to the lift bars, I know with both of these you need to re-enforce your torque boxes. The car just spins through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd oh it's that bad. I was leaning towards the lift bars and adjustable upper control arms but I wasn't sure how bad the sound was on the lift bar bushings. I'de like to know what other people have used in the past to get traction.

I'm running soutside lift bars on my setup and they hook up great. The ride isnt too bad. The only thing is the tires make a little bit more noise. Also with SSM bars you have to get them welded, so that took some time to do.

I would give Maximum motorsports or steeda a call. They are the suspension experts.
