Since we've now seen some GT/PE reviews, sounds like us GT owners are going to ultimately be in a similar boat of leaving some room for improvement in better dampers.

I've submitted a product request to Bilstein already. In addition to them, who generally will manufacturer aftermarket dampers for Mustangs? I'm sure there's not much out there yet (or anything?) but perhaps we care share with some manufacturers our interest.

Model Y has so many choices it will make you head spin and the Y is still relatively new. I’m hoping help is on the way soon. I know steeda is developing a suspension for the MME

I finally received a response from Bilstein.

Hello Greg!



Thanks for reaching out. The Mach-E is an outstanding vehicle from everything we are hearing and believe me, we are working as fast as we can to get product out for it. Where it is exactly on our development list, I cannot say, but I do know this is one of several EVs that we are looking at launching some product for.



Stay tuned! I will pass this along to our product development team as well!







Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

The ones you really want are the Koni Sports, aka the Yellows. Adjustable rebound damping at a very good price. Along with FRP springs and GT500 control arms they transformed my floaty factory 2012 GT/CS suspension into a Boss 302 killer set up.

Awesome! I have reached out to Eibach and Steeda. Hopefully we'll have some good options soon!

I received a reply from Steeda. They said that they will begin Mach-E development once they take delivery of their test vehicle. :cool: Good things are coming. We just need to be patient and we also need to let the aftermarket know that we're interested in improving this car above and beyond what's been given to us by ford.

I just received an email reply from Eibach...

They have started development of lowering springs and we can expect product updates soon.
Good news. Are they planning to develop shocks/struts?
