Got 77,000 miles on the 03 mustang gt and the cars had a bouncy/rough feel on city streets but feels fine on highways and smooth roads. Also alot of sway in the body. Time to beef up the suspension??

If its still the stock suspension parts I would say its time for some lowering springs and new shocks/struts for sure. Caster Camber plates too if funds allow.

The stock dampers wear out fast because they are junk.
