Essential 2012 Ford Mustang Suspension Parts

Whiteline – Control Arm Upper Arm (Part No.KTA204)

Control Arm Upper Arm

from

$207.99
The S197 chassis third link set up has suffered from brake hop and axle tramp with the stock arm and the ultra-compliant stock bushing is designed for comfort and leaves something desired for performance driving. Whiteline’s upper control arm is built with 4130 Chromalloy and features the longer arm length which Ford incorporated in the 2011 change which reduces brake hop. The synthetic elastomer bushing adds increased stability to the rear end without the harshness of the commonly used bearing design and features and eccentric crush tube which allows pinion angle / instant centre adjustment without weakening the arm with a turnbuckle adjustment. The pinhole voiding feature allows the bushing to articulate without binding. The heavy duty mount adds to the increased rigidity of the arm and is designed to be universal for all years of the S197 chassis.

Product Features:
  • Engineered to alter/ optimise vehicles pinion angle to minimise vibration and increase rear drive power/torque to the wheels.
  • Protective plating on all metal components acts as a hard skin that is much tougher than conventional paint allowing this product to withstand the toughest conditions and resist corrosion for years to come.
  • Install guide included providing detailed instructions on how to install your new Whiteline purchase.

Whiteline – Control Arm Lower Rear Mounting Bracket (Part No.KBR37)

Control Arm Lower Rear Mounting Bracket

from

$195.99

Product Features:
  • Bracing maintains alignment angles and spring rates by greatly reducing body or chassis flex.
  • Protective plating on all metal components acts as a hard skin that is much tougher than conventional paint allowing this product to withstand the toughest conditions and resist corrosion for years to come.
  • Precisely placed dampening voids further reduces harshness from sudden road inputs.

Product Features:
  • Bracing maintains alignment angles and spring rates by greatly reducing body or chassis flex.
