Rear suspension

I think the rear suspension will be 4 1/2 leaf springs, del-a-lum bushings, and bilstein mustang shocks.


Del-A-Lum bushings eliminate the bind and play in rubber bushings. They also won't deflect making the leaf springs act as their own anti-sway bar.





4.5 leaf springs are as stiff in the front half as a 5 leaf, and as "soft" in the rear half as a 4 leaf, giving a nice ride(if you like firm suspensions) while eliminating wheel hop.






Bilstein is now making a sport shock specifically valved for classic mustangs. I'm told they are the best street shock available, and not half bad on track either.
