July 2002  All New FFR Three Link Suspension!
Now there are three different rear suspension packages you can buy!

The new FFR Three-link suspension is a great example of race technology that makes better street cars.  After two seasons of racing our Spec Racer in the Mid-Atlantic and West Coast series, we found the standard four link suspension needed help at extreme racing limits.  After six months of development and two months at speed in the Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving, the Three-link was determined to be a worthy compliment to the standard Mustang four-link and IRS suspension packages.  The Three-link has received more track time testing than almost any other FFR part.  It works wonderfully, aiding hook-up, eliminating bind, and provides an amazingly predictable ride.

The new Three-link suspension is designed to upgrade the stock Mustang parts with a steel framework and panhard bar package that handles better and costs only $550.  The new FFR Three-link can be retro-fitted  into any older FFR roadsters.  It is an intermediate step between the stock rear suspension and the high end IRS.

Spec rules still permit the older four-link but most racers have upgraded their cars.  the new suspension is standard on all FFR Spec Racers and is a $550 option for any 65 roadster kit.

We have shipped over 200 of these new suspensions to existing and new FFR customers.  With the new rigidity of the Mark II chassis, the three link is a perfect compliment.  The IRS still provides a smoother street ride, but with the three link package, the solid axle is closer than ever!  Call us for more details or to ourder yours today.
