It has been brought to my attention that my preconceived idea as to the amount of Mustangs out there with the UCA drop, AKA Shelby drop, or Arning drop on them was incorrect. In the interest of educating my self I ask that all who read this
(owners with cars that have and don’t have the drop) please respond with the fallowing information
1. Year of car
2. Vert, Fastback or Coupe
3. Weather or not your car has had the UCAs relocated if yes is your car a Shelby?
4. Weather or not you participate in organized racing. This would not include your car club renting a track or drag strip once a year or any spontaneous racing done from stoplight to stop light, but actual participation in regular organized racing evens.

I appreciate your time in answering these questions. I will be placing this post on other forums as well so if you participate in other forums pleas only respond at one location so as to maintain accuracy.

Yes, did the drop when I replaced the suspension, but it's not a Shelby
