Whammer Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 I'd like to know what improvements in handling you noticed when you had the FRPP handling pack installed? Was cornering improved? Traction? Did it ride stiffer? Positive and negative comments welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mundies Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 I did FRPP with steeda upper and lower control arms. Better cornering, traction, and eliminated wheel hop. Stiffer yes. Maybe a little bit more road noise. Gotta be more careful with dips and driveways. I am very happy with this upgrade. Even for a novice to a high performance car the stock wheel hop was not acceptable. matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light66 Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Can anyone confirm or deny that with the FRPP handling package, one does NOT need to change the UCA. The FRPP handling package by-itself takes care of the wheel hop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

breoland Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 keep in mind that if you lower the car and decide to change the drive shaft to a one piece alluminum one, you will need to change the upper control arm to a double adjustable one to reset the pinion angle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rag Top Day Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Ride quality vastly improved, alot more comfortable ride. Was to soft and sloppy before. Pinion angle was still with in specs after install and car handled much better. Added camber/caster plates to be able to tweek the alignment. Also FRPP now has special bump stops for the kit for the FRPP suspension package. 2005-2011 MUSTANG JOUNCE BUMPER KIT No negitives, Love the kit.

cluscher Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Can anyone confirm or deny that with the FRPP handling package, one does NOT need to change the UCA. The FRPP handling package by-itself takes care of the wheel hop? The handling pack should have also come with UCA and LCAs in my opinion. Lowering the car with the handling pack tends to get rid of the wheel hop, but not in the way you would like it to. The change in suspension geometry just makes the car lose traction that much more easily. The rear doesn't plant after the car is lowered. You need an adjustable UCA at the very least, and preferably LCAs with relocation brackets as well, to get the rear to be able to plant the way it should. Adding UCA and LCAs to the handling pack makes a big difference and is needed IMO. The best option to compliment the handling pack is the Griggs torque arm in lieu of UCA with their LCAs and axle brackets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsublett Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 the FRPP handling pack is great car rides like it should of came from the factory Agree. Wheel hop gone. Corners great. Ride is slightly harsher, but not bad. Did not change UCA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
