Just got the front control arms upgraded (03 Cobra fronts) along with a full Cobra brake upgrade (front and rear w/ SS lines). The red calipers look pretty neat on a dark green stang, but now I really do need to fix my tribar problem.

Wow!

The Cobra brakes are obviously way better than the GT crap. I still have the GT master cylinder and the brake pedal feel is perfect. In fact, it reminds me of the stock pedal feel in an 03/04 Mach 1.

The control arms apparently were needed real bad, because my ride is much better. The arms compliment my other suspension stuff real well. The ride is less harsh and feels even more precise. Can't wait to get the rear hardware done next. I will definitely recommend H&R Race springs to anyone with a daily driver. Handling has been awesome with my previous stuff (see sig). Glad to know I've been choosing the right parts to meet my expectations.

I'm getting pics up by tomorrow evening.

The springs I have lower the car evenly, whereas some kits lower the front more than the rear.
