ATTENTION
Before you can continue, you must agree to all of the following terms:
The RM Series is comprised of a damper cartridge secured within a threaded outer body. This specific design requires a lubricating grease to be applied during the assembly process between the two damper and threaded body to avoid metal-to-metal contact. In order to keep the two components from touching each other and generating noise transmission you will need to periodically clean out the old grease and apply new grease.
This is a simple process that can be done with just a few common tools. It does not require you to open the internals of the dampers themselves and therefore you do not need to have the dampers re-pressurized after carrying out this procedure. Please contact us on info@mlperformance.co.uk for more information and a step-by-step guide on how to complete this maintenance.
As a result of this required maintenance, we do not recommend the RM Series for road use over the BR Series or ER Series.

SPL Shelby GT500 Tension Rods (TR) provide front caster and anti-dive adjustment for the S550 GT500, allowing for symmetrical and ideal caster angle on both sides. The stock mushy rubber bushing is replaced by a US-made, low friction, hardened FK spherical bearing to eliminate deflection and bind, resulting in improved handling, direct braking feel, and sharp steering.
Using a mixture of billet 2024-T351 aluminum, stainless steel, chromoly steel, and titanium results in strong, adjustable arms that are 3.0 lbs lighter than the stock aluminum GT500 arms. Our 360° aluminum clamp design allows for fast, precise on-car adjustment by simply loosening two titanium Allen head cap screws and turning the arm. Once set, simply tighten the cap screws and you're done. No more fumbling wrenches trying to hold everything together while you tighten jam nuts.
Sold as a pair.

Install Instructions
SPL TR GT500 Install Instructions
IMPORTANT INSTALL INFO
Ford made numerous variations of the front knuckles across the S550 Mustang and Shelby line-up. These knuckles vary across nameplates (Mach 1, GT350, etc), years (2019 vs 2020 GT350), and even options (Handling Pack 2, etc).
Each knuckle variant may have different conical tapered seats where the front control arms mount. It is VERY IMPORTANT to verify the supplied conical tapered spacer fits snuggly into the knuckle, has near zero lateral end play (as-in it will not rock within the bore), and seats fully into the knuckle when installed at the proper torque value.
If you need clarification or feel you may have the wrong spacer for your Mustang, then please email us.
MCS internal resevoir 2-way adjustable shocks (2WNR / TT2), and potentially other struts/coilovers that extend well below the OEM length when installed, can lead to issues clearing our mounting studs. The remote resevoir MCS coilovers are compatible with our stud since they utilize a shorter shock body.
Components
Feel free to contact us at info@mlperformance.co.uk should you wish to double check!
To ensure the part(s) you have ordered fits your vehicle, we run a compatibility check prior to dispatch. We can do this either using your registration number (UK) or the last 7 digits of your VIN. Simply enter your car details prior to checkout.
