Improves Handling. Installing a set of progressive rate Ford Racing K-Springs will lower your Mustang's center of gravity, which will reduce squat during acceleration, body roll in the corners, and excessive nose-dive under hard braking. Ford Racing K-Springs are great for daily driving, street, and even occasional track use.

Aggressive Stance. The Ford Racing K-Springs not only improve the handling of your S197 Mustang, but they also improve the overall appearance by lowering the ride height approximately 1.5" to eliminate that nasty raised 4x4 truck look for a more aggressive muscle car stance.

Application. This set of four Ford Racing K-Springs are designed specifically for use on the 2005 to 2010 GT Mustangs Coupes. They will also fit 2011 and newer GT Coupes when used in combination with Ford Racing M-18183-C upper strut mounts and M-18000-A dampers (sold separately). Does not fit V6 or convertible models.

    Great product, easy to install, and look great on my 07 GT. Fills the fender wells nicely with the 18x10 285-40s and 18x9 255-45s, also purchased at AM. Thanks

    !!! Important info for use on 2011 GT's

    The following info is from personal experience of a guy with more than 35 years of wrenching experience. If you want to use the "K" springs on the 2011 GT, read the FRPP catalog carefully. The M-18000-A struts/dampers and the FRPP M-18183-C strut mounts are a package deal - not a menu deal. The 2011 strut "perch" is different, and the mounts are taller, so the 2005-2010 struts do not seat properly on the stock mounts. Oh, you will read on the 'Net that they work fine, and Ford is not clear on this point, but after we did all the work, we found that using the "K" springs with the stock mounts allowed too much play, and did not bode well for long-term stability/safety/wear. After numerous calls to FRPP, here is the right setup for the 2011 GT:1) 5300-K springs2) M-18183-C strunt mounts3) M-18000-A struts/dampersOnce you get all these installed correctly, the end result is very sweet: greatly reduced sway, crisp turn-in, greatly reduced nose-dive under braking, and sharper handling all around. The car also looks great with the 1.5" drop! Looks both smaller and meaner, as a sports car should look. Ride is a bit choppier, especially if you decide to ignore these recs and stay with the stock dampers - they are not setup for the taller 2011 strut mounts. FRPP should be clear in their catalog that the 3 parts are required; when I read the first 2011 catalog and spoke to someone at FRPP, it seemed that the dampers were considered a enhancement; no, they are required to make the whole package work right and be safe. Thanks to Steve Horn at Ford Racing Perf Parts for helping me sort this out - I had to eat the double labor time though. Hope this helps.
