Help me setup my suspension

Im ready to start on the suspension and have a few questions. Ive got DR's in the rear and am very worried about damaging the frame/axle/tranny. Im planning on gettin the paxton novi 2000 blower and want to be setup to handle that much power. Thinking of going all steeda but wanted to know which ones you guys think i should get. Money is not my main concern, if its worth an extra $40 to go with a certain brand then ill do it, but if its just over priced becuase of name brand then forget it. For now im just looking for control arms, subframes, and springs. Any recommended combo would be greatly appreciated. I plan to take this beast to the track about once a month, other than that i drive it all over town every day. Want it to be totally streetable and want a nice smooth ride. Thanks guys, WhiteDevil.

I don't think you can go wrong with Steeda or Maximum Motorsports. I think the M&M subframes are superior to Steedas, but some of Steedas LCAs and UCAs are nicer for the drag racer because they are lighter than M&Ms.

I have only purchased subframes so far, so hopefully you'll get replies from some LCA + UCA owners. As for springs, look here for a good comparison and pick whats best for you: http://www.2kgt.com/_tech.asp?item=16

Good luck!

I'm a Griggs fan so here is a list of parts I would use.

Lower Control Arms, Rear, Stock Springs Mustang '79-'98 MCA 4000 S $ 199.95

Upper Conrols. Griggs feels the Ford Motorsport HD upper conrol arms are the best. You would have to look up a price for them.

Subframe Connector, Lower, Flat Mustang '79-'04 MFK 1000 L $ 89.95

Springs= all depend on what you want to do with your car?

Check out the pro3i's here on stangnet in the partshopper and look at the reviews...they got like a 9.43 or something out of 10. That is what i am going with on my 98 blown cobra and im also still wondering what subframes to go with, i think any full length will do the job just fine and im looking for a good price right now. I think the MM are a tad over priced so i wont be going there but they do have nice products. the pro3i control arms are identically to the MM for way less so that is why im buying those and have heard not one bad thing aobut them.
