BMR Suspension has taken the guesswork out of making significant handling improvements to the 2005-2014 S197 Mustang, and put it in one convenient package. Countless hours of design, engineering, and track testing gives you the best combination of parts for improved handling on the street and track. Matching specific components provides a great blend of performance, aesthetics, and comfort.
BMR’s Lowering Spring Package (LSP001) addresses key points of the suspension to improve the “system.” BMR Suspension designed the LSP001 to work well for street performance and handling applications. BMR’s Lowering Spring Package is 100-percent bolt-in and require zero cutting, welding, or modification to the chassis or suspension. Whether you simply want a better handling daily driver, or the ultimate track day car, rely on BMR Suspension!
Lowering Springs (SP009)
Over time, stock springs sag, get rusty, and simply wear out. BMR Suspension believes the right springs go beyond looks—your S197 needs to perform, too! All BMR springs are manufactured from chrome silicon high-tensile spring wire, and are cold wound on a CNC coiling machine. The CNC coiling head can adjust the spring diameter in real time to ensure that every spring is exactly the same. This guarantees that your right spring matches your left spring. Every BMR spring is compressed solid at the factory, not once, but twice. This gives the spring its permanent set, and guarantees no sag. BMR springs are stress-relieved at 750 degrees F, ensuring most stresses induced during the winding process are eliminated. All springs are then shot-peened to eliminate residual surface stresses. Many spring manufacturers skip this step, but BMR insists on this operation as part of our spring manufacturing process. Every spring is computer tested as the last step—every spring, not just a sample from each batch. Each spring is loaded in the spring tester at the factory, then compressed and the CNC load cell measures the force for a variety of spring lengths. This allows BMR to offer a LIFETIME WARRANTY against spring sag.
Blending aesthetics and performance, BMR has designed the SP009 for the street performance crowd who want to use their cars in a variety of application. These springs will drop the front end of your S197 Mustang 1.5-inches, and feature a fine-tuned spring rate (165lb front, 160lb rear) to give you great handling and a smooth ride. The linear spring rate offers plenty of support, keeping the body flat and level in the corners, while remaining soft enough for a comfortable ride on any road.
Stock sway bars have low torsional spring rates because they are manufactured from small diameter bar stock or tubing.
Camber Bolts (FC001)
The S197 Mustangs have no factory camber adjustability, and once your car is lowered, this can lead to poor handling and premature tire wear. BMR’s Camber Bolts are forged steel bolts, giving you unrivaled strength and precision. The assembly is completed with heavy-duty nuts and locating washers. The BMR Camber Bolts give you 2 degree of camber adjustability in the front of your S197 Mustang. This allows you to achieve the proper camber settings on lowered vehicles, or more aggressive alignment setting for hardcore handling applications.
BMR Suspension designed the FC001 Camber Bolts for street performance, drag race, and handling applications. Each component of the FC001 assembly is precision forged, giving you the ability to make precise alignment changes. The nut/locating washer design allows for unlimited adjustments without have to use new hardware. Whether you drag race, road race, or simply drive your car on the street, BMR’s FC001 is perfect for any car in need of additional front camber.
Control Arm Relocation Brackets (CAB005)
BMR’s bolt-on relocation brackets for S197 Mustangs are the ultimate in strength and adjustability. The stock lower control arm mounting location can give you insufficient lower control arm angle on lowered vehicles. BMR’s control arm relocation brackets allow you to correct the lower control arm angle, correcting the rear suspension geometry and allowing you to add anti-squat for increased traction. Manufactured from heavy-duty 3/16- and 1/4-inch laser cut, CNC-formed steel plate, the CAB005 are designed to bolt in place, making installation simple and easy.
The stock control arm mounting position is fine for stock height vehicles, but once you lower your car, the control arms change and need to be corrected. The CAB005s allow you lower the lower control arms’ rear mounting position by as much as 3 inches, correcting the control arm angles. This also allows you to make instant center changes for race applications. BMR Suspension designed the CAB005 to work well in street performance, drag race, and road race applications. It is engineering to bolt on and stand up to extremely high horsepower and torque levels, as well as the hardest drag strip launches without moving on the rearend housing.
Adjustable Panhard Bar (PHR006)
Factory S197 Mustang Panhard rods are made from weak U-shaped stamped steel with soft rubber bushings that allow excessive deflection under load. BMR Suspension’s PHR006 Panhard rod is made 1.25-inch, 0.120-inch wall DOM tubing with TIG-welded chrome-moly tube adapters. The PHR006 features BMR’s CNC-machined center adjuster, which is made from 4130 chrome-moly with rolled threads. The PHR006 features greasable, 95-durometer bushings, which add a solid, more responsive feel over the stock rubber bushings. BMR’s bushings are internally fluted, which allows grease to evenly coat the inner sleeve, keeping grease in the bushing under high compression loads. These flutes also direct grease to the outer edge of the bushing, keeping the thrust surface lubricated. This efficient lubrication ensures quiet, reliable operation over the life of the bushings.
BMR Suspension designed the PHR006 to work well for street performance, drag race, and road race applications. The heavy-duty construction eliminates the deflection seen in stamped-steel Panhard rods. Other Panhard rods on the market include rubber bushings that will deflect under heavy loads. The 95-durometer polyurethane bushings of the PHR006 reduce bushing deflection, giving you much-improved, repeatable handling characteristics on the street, starting line, or in aggressive corners. The on-car adjustable design makes the PHR006 great lowered Mustangs. This gives you all the strength and adjustability you need for great handling without huge increases in NVH.
Upper Strut Mounts (M-18183-C)
These Ford Racing Upper Strut mounts feature a higher durometer mounting pad for increased performance, higher impact loads, and increased durability. Factory Upper Strut Mount failure is a common occurrence on 2005-Current Mustangs, especially when replacing your front suspension with aftermarket pieces. These units are the perfect upgrade for your 2005-2014 Mustang GT and V-6.
