2 questions: Does this kit work for other Ford rear suspensions? (Falcon, fairlane, etc)? Would you recommend this upgrade for road course/autocross type racing? Very informative video! Thanks!
The kit is somewhat universal. It is designed to help stabilize the rear-end of the car and sets the roll center. The challenge for the applications like yours is the aluminum tube. You may need a longer tube that we can supply in 1" increments. If you plan to do auto-crossing or road racing, it is a good addition. Hopefully helpful! Cm
@@maierracing558 yes. I want to do the Detroit Speed mini tub kit. With your leaf springs and panhard bar setup. The Detroit Speed kit does move section of frame rail inboard. I believe it does relocate the springs inboard. I dont know how much though. Would the bars need shortened and rethreaded to fit? That is what I'm thinking. Anything can be made to fit.
@@jobsheatz #1. I personally sold the JRI shock line program to DSE. I like their products. That said, I would not really do their Mini Tub. What is your goal? Email us: maiershipping@gmail.com
Unless he has figured a way for the pan handle bar to shorten and lengthen as rear end travels up and down. Then the rear will be pushed to one side and the body to the other side from the length if of the panhandle bar. In high speed when body goes one way and rear end another that would cause a sway in rear end and body. Or that’s how I see it, if a truck pulls a trailer and u get that away then truck is pushed to one side and trailer is pushed to the other causing a sway.
Yes, you are correct. As the Pan Hard Rod is swinging on an arch, it will push and pull throughout its range of travel. That said, the number is very small. Ideally the pan hard rod should be mounted relatively close to level at ride height. If the P Rod is 40" for example and the chassis goes through an inch of bump, the amount of pull from the chassis on the rear end will be less than an 1/8th of an inch or so.. very minimal. The P Rod is a case of reducing a larger issue; the control of the chassis over the rear end. Which without a P Rod, Watts link, Jacob's ladder etc.. that issues is far greater than the push and pull of the rear end in its travel. The P Rod also allows you to move the roll center easily. A nice tool if you are in competition and you find you need course changes in a short amount of time. No need to change springs. Changing the roll center effectively, changing the leverage and the effectiveness of the spring.

How much modification would be needed if I have mini tub kit?
Does your Mustang still have leaf springs and if so have they been relocated?
