Rounding out our GT500's rear end suspension was a BMR 22mm Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Kit. BMR's sway bar uses high quality polyurethane bushings and is lighter weight than the factory bar so that you get increased response in the corners with less body roll. 05-10 Mustang-GT500 BMR 22mm Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Kit
BMR 5-Hole Adjustable Front Sway Bar Kit
At the front of our GT500 we matched up our new rear sway bar with a BMR 5-Hole Adjustable Front Sway Bar Kit. This new front sway bar is made from aerospace grade, cold-formed steel that has similar strength to factory designs while being much lighter and more resistant to fatigue. What this means is sharper cornering at high-speeds and more control of our car in the bends. 05-10 Mustang-GT500 BMR 5-Hole Adjustable Front Sway Bar Kit
BMR A-Arm Support Brace
As if all the other BMR mods weren't enough, we added a BMR A-Arm Support Brace for just a touch more rigidity up front. The A-arm brace is a simple component that easily bolts into place on the A-arm's rear mounts making it a cheap and easy way to tighten up your Mustang or GT500's handling. 05-14 Mustang-GT500 BMR A-Arm Support Brace
Power Stop High-Carbon Track Day Rotors
Power Stop High-Carbon Track Day Rear Rotors
With the suspension dialed in on our GT500 it was time to get to work on the brakes. These Power Stop High-Carbon drilled and slotted rotors provide maximum stopping power with higher resistance to brake fade than stock while reducing brake dust and ensuring reliable stopping under high temperatures. We replaced both the front and the rear rotors to get the best braking possible. 07-12 GT500 Power Stop High-Carbon Track Day Front Rotors05-14 Mustang-GT500 Power Stop High-Carbon Track Day Rear Rotors
Hawk HPS Brake Pads
it would be foolish of us to throw on new rotors and not replace the pads so we trashed the old pads and picked up a new set of Hawk's HPS Performance pads for the front and back of our Shelby GT500. These HPS brake pads feature a unique Ferro-Carbon, high-tech friction material that was developed and manufactured for high-speed street driving with a compound that provides advanced braking characteristics to enhance your driving experience.

JLT Brake Duct Cooling Kit
Topping off our parade of suspension and brake upgrades is the JLT Brake Duct Cooling Kit. This relatively simple mod uses a series of hoses, brackets and hardware to create two channels in the lower grille that funnel cool air to your car's front brakes and reduce brake fade. It's a simple system that works great on the street or the track. JLT Brake Duct Cooling Kit
