Install quad shocks

i agree with mustang5l5 with about needing quads after control arms

i installed a set of control arms, upper and lower and didnt have quads on for a week or so. the car wheel hopped bad, i ordered the gabriel set from autozone, 2 for 50 bucks i run them flipped around, it clears both my steet and track tire combos so why not run them. it cured my wheel hop and i couldnt be happier.

and yes they are called steering dampeners, i have no idea why. but they are.

I'd go with a good set of upper and lower control arms like Steeda or UPR. None of my stangs have quads, and I have no wheel hop or traction problems. I have Maximum motorsports setup on my 00, Steeda on my 91LX and UPR drag setup on my 88LX.

If I remember correctly MM tells you to remove the quad shocks in the directions with the suspenion kit due to suspension bind. I have the MM lowers with the recomended SVO uppers and the MM panhard bar on my 00GT. It's a nice setup and handles well on the street.

It's hit or miss. Some guys like yourself can get away with it, some can't.

I wouldn't say hit or miss, but your right if don't have the supporting mods or your suspension is worn out then quads may be needed. Things like subframes, control arms, upper axle bushings, springs, shocks, and pinion angle are a big part of it.
