Hello, I have just upgraded the suspension on my 2007 V6. I had bought the Tockio struts and shocks. Yeah, they set me back right under $400 just for the parts! But WOW, everything was improved on the ride! I would even dare to say my stopping distance was improved a few feet from 60 to 0. I have no real data on this, just from driving it. But I can tell that I have way better handling on the cruves and turns ....a WHOLE LOT BETTER than stock's shocks and struts. If I had to judge it... on a scale 1-10, 10 being the best. Stock was a 6. These are a soild 10. Even launching for a dead stop, the car doesn't nose dive or raise the rear end. No I have not lowered my car either, but wow, it really sets it off in style too. That blue color adds in a hint of... "this guy have put some upgrades into this car..."Was it worth it, YES. I let a local shop put them on, cost me about $300. So the total was about $700, I feel like I'm driving a GT 500. I never driven a GT 500, but I rode in one and right off the start, you know the car has some good parts.

Trust me, if you upgrade to these, you will notice a HUGE DIFFERNCE and better ride. I thought my drive on the interstate was smooth...this makes it even smoother! Its like going from a Hyndai to a BMW. ITs unbelieveable. Also, believe it or not, my picture file was too large to upload:( sorry.

Glad you are happy with everything, Firedawg!

Shocks and struts are probably the best place to start suspension-wise with these cars. They definitely worth every penny!

Have you thought about doing sway-bars next? Dollar for dollar, sway-bars are THE BEST suspension modification you can do to a Mustang or any car for that matter!

Hey, just to piggy back off what Josh said... I'm planning to spend about $7,000-10,000 before the year is out, will you be able to help me too? I'm looking to buy a Procharger and some other items along with sway bars, etc.

I have everything else; rims, shocks/struts, shaker system, TB spacer, HID kit, sequentials, pop gauges, billet caps, etc. Just need some power. If I can save a few bucks, that would be great!
