Team Z Motorsport has announced that the high-performance suspension found on Ford’s Mustang Cobra Jet factory dragster will become available as a separate part now that the fifth-gen Mustang-based Cobra Jet program has been completed.
Developed together with Ford Racing, the suspension pack comes with a pair of double-adjustable, TIG-welded chromoly lower control arms with high-strength rod ends, a pair of TIG-welded lower control arm relocation brackets, bolt-in anti-roll bar, and a spherical housing bushing. The complete package can be ordered at $879, Team Z Motorsports says each part can be also purchased separately.

“We’ve worked with Ford Racing on the development and construction of the Cobra Jet suspension since the beginning. Now that the S197 Cobra Jet program has been completed, we’re able to offer that same suspension system to the general public. But instead of offering the same suspension we built for the Cobra Jet, we’ve redesigned it to include double-adjustable lower control arms, which aren’t legal in NHRA Stock competition – but are everywhere else. The system tested two-tenths better on the track with Ford Racing drivers at the wheel, and we’re proud to be able to offer it to everyone now.”

Last week, Ford Racing announced the availabily of the musclecar's supercharged V8 powerplant as a crate engine. The 2014 Ford Mustang Cobra Jet is built in only 50 examples and sold starting from $97,990 each.
