The plastic winglets on the Steeda rear wing have been replaced with billet aluminium to provide greater rigidity. The end plates have been etched with the Steeda sponsor logo.
These winglets are made from high quality aluminium and are machined in Steeda’s in-house CNC center, providing the highest quality billet aluminium on the market. – See more at: http://www.steeda.com/steeda-billet-logo-mustang-spoiler-winglets-555-0215/#sthash.rIJctLv8.dpuf #Steeda
Our sponsors at Steeda have used their expertise in Mustang performance handling to provide a number of upgrades shown below. These particularly focus on improved handling and weight reduction. Having recently had the steering setup correctly by a race mechanic, I have now encountered the phenomenon of “bumpsteer”. Fortunately, Steeda are able to correct this problem !
Steeda’s In-Style Ultralite Wheels 20 x 9.5, reduce unsprung mass. They were designed with the correct offset, specifically for the S197 Mustang. Available in either chrome or satin finish, these wheels are not just gravity poured, but are made using our track-tested pressure casting technique, which produces a lighter, stronger wheel.
Steeda’s Competition/Street springs have been competition proven in NASA American Iron competition. They will greatly reduce nosedive and keep body roll to a minimum for the ultimate in performance.
Lowers vehicle approx 1 inch front, 1 1/4 inch rear. The S197 Mustang sits high in the rear. These springs will give it a more aggressive look
Highest spring rate for dramatic improvement in handling and reduction of nosedive
Spring rate can still be used for street driving on dual purpose cars

Steeda’s double bar chrome-moly alloy steel strut tower brace is a great addition to your S197 Mustang.
With 2 bars made of chrome-moly steel instead of regular mild steel, you get double the strength over competitive mild steel braces.
Further limit g-loading with a Steeda Rear Shock Tower Brace. Stainless steel hardware including teflon lined rod ends included. A great complement to a coil-over system; will yield a stiffer chassis regardless of your suspension choice. Some welding required for installation.
Steeda’s Lightweight Tubular Front radiator support is the only one on the market today that allows you to maintain your front swaybar and reduce weight at the same time!
Our engineers designed this support from super strong and light 4130 Chrome moly steel material. This resulted in a tubular support that is half the weight of the stock steel unit and yet is still strong enough for you to run your front swaybar when not at the drag strip! In fact, this item is the perfect item for the road course/autocross car to reduce front end weight and improve weight distribution.
Tig welded and powdercoated in silver metal flake this part also looks great too. Accepts all factory hardware also, unlike the competition. This brace bolts directly in place of the factory piece and can be installed by practically anyone.
Our G-trac bar is a direct bolt on replacement for your S197 Mustang and provides greatly improved front chassis bracing.
The stock front lower chassis has a cross brace but it is mounted to an unsupported flange. Our G-trac brace ties the rear mounts of the front lower control arms together to reduce flex at the mounts and make the front chassis stiffer.
Our G-trac brace is attached as close to the control arm bushings as possible so the load path is more direct and you get much more effective stiffening so the suspension geometry doesn’t change during high cornering/chassis loads. Manufactured from super strong chrome moly alloy steel tube. Over twice as strong as any mild steel offering. Includes G-trac bar and installation hardware.
If you have substantially lowered your vehicle chances are you have introduced bump steer. What is bump steer? Bump Steer is changes in toe caused by suspension movement.
Every car has bump steer, however when you lower the vehicle you increase the amount of bump steer that occurs, if this becomes excessive you will begin to notice some unwanted vehicle driving characteristics.
When you turn your steering wheel you are essentially changing the toe of the wheels to turn the vehicle. Excessive bump steer is undesireable because it introduces unwanted steering inputs which means the suspension is steering the car instead of the driver.
If your car is lowered and has tracking issues and less predictable steering behavior, you need a bump steer kit.
Steeda’s Bump Steer Kits will allow you to correct your bump steer geometry and can do so without requiring you to drill or modify your vehicle spindle.
In addition, our bump steer kit makes a great service replacement for your worn out, high mileage outer tie rods even if you do not have excessive bump steer issues.
Pick up a bump steer kit today and refresh your outer tie rods and improve your steering.
Steeda’s X5 balljoints are designed to raise the roll center of your S197 Mustang which becomes lower as a result of lowering with lowering springs.
Raising the roll center eliminates the issues associated with the lower roll center, making for a great improvement in handling by reducing body roll and improving the front tire contact patch without increasing spring rate or roll bar rate.
Steeda balljoints are made in the USA by a respected name-brand supplier to Ford, GM and Daimler Chrysler. Except for their custom length, they are the same materials and construction that has been extensively tested in Panther applications, that is, police cars and other severe duty applications, where they have demonstrated durability that exceeds current production “regular” balljoints. They meet Ford’s standards for friction, wear, and durability.
