Michael Morris Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Does the 2007 GT H differ in any way mechanically i.e. suspension, tune, rear end gearing, other then the obvious automatic, and body parts? Pretty much. The SGT was the retail version of the GTH! Different stripes and wheels and most were autos!! MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sireal66 Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Pretty much. The SGT was the retail version of the GTH! Different stripes and wheels and most were autos!! MM Michael thanks, but after seeing your spec sheet I am totally confused- comparing your spec sheet and my spec sheet I don’t see the same items listed for the handling packages (or even the same codes) I don’t see lowering springs, no sway bars. Was the GT H given a less effective suspension? Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socalwrench Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 The spec sheet above actually says "Front Torsion Bar" and "Rear Torsion Bar". This would be an incorrect name for the front and rear anti-roll bars / sway bars. Technically, in an engineering sense, the anti-roll bar DOES act like a lateral torsion bar. However, in car terms a torsion bar refers to another type of suspension spring. However, you are right- I can't find anything says springs on that sheet. I do know that the GT-H used the entire FR1 package- which uses Ford Racing K-springs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sway bars or lowering springs!! I just found this in 'Vehicles" on this site, Articles & News 2008 Shelby GT-H Introduced By Staff Report "Thundering Ponies Ford Racing Performance Group’s Power Pack (FR1) will kick up the 4.6L V-8/Five-speed automatic transmission powertrain to 319 horsepower. To put that extra power to the ground, the Ford Shelby GT-H will feature the Ford Racing Handling Pack (FR3) including special-tuned dampers, lowering springs, sway bars and a strut tower brace – plus a 3.55:1 ratio rear axle assembly for extra off-the-line acceleration."

07-2937 Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 the front susp of the GTH is different Hertz knew if it was lowered there would be alot of curb bashing so the fronts were modified I believe it was the stock strut with the ford racing spring and a modified swaybar.
