Maximum Motorsports 96-04 Mustang 4-Point K Member Brace

* The front of the MM brace mounts to the bottom of the K-member. The rearward points of the brace mount at the K-Member-to-chassis mounting points.
* The MM K-Member Brace's design includes a structural steel web. This splits the suspension loads. Part of the load goes into the unibody at the rearward K-member to chassis mounting points, and part goes straight across the K-member to the opposite side.
* The mounting bolts for the brace attach through a structural tube. Unlike commonly used flat tabs, the suspension loads pass into the MM brace without deflecting the mounts.
* Note: 4-Point braces will not clear long-tube headers. MMKB2-2 will clear most long-tube headers.

Qualities that make the MM Mustang K-Member unique:

• Lengthens the Mustang's wheelbase by 3/4". This improves the front to rear weight distribution. It also increases the positive caster, which improves cornering ability.
• The vertical location of the control arm pivots was optimized to improve the camber curve on lowered vehicles, and improve the roll center height.
• Two possible vertical locations for the control arm pivots (1" higher, or 2" higher than stock) are built into the MM K-member. This allows installing the front control arms in the pivot location that is optimal for the car's chosen ride height.
• The steering rack location is optimized for the greatest improvement in Ackerman steering geometry possible. This improves turn-in response, reduces understeer, and improves tire wear.
• After extensive testing of different anti-dive geometries, Maximum Motorsports determined that Ford got it right! The stock amount of anti-dive provides the best performance, and that is what we build into our MM K-member. Increasing anti-dive geometry over the stock amount will cause the suspension to bind during hard braking, which in turn causes the front brakes to lock-up easily.
• The MM K-Member comes standard with a two point MM K-member Brace. Stock K-members need them, and so do aftermarket K-members. This is the only tubular Mustang K-member that has a 2-point brace as an integral part of the design.
• Our 5.0L Mustang MM K-member allows the option of setting the engine back one inch, or installing it in the stock location.
• We offer versions of our MM K-member that allow 5.0-based engines to be installed in 1996-2004 Mustangs, and modular engines to be installed in 1979-1995 Mustangs.
• Increased clearance for the oil pan makes its removal much easier.
• Mustang Header clearance is increased in critical areas.
• Our tubular design provides easier access to the Mustang's starter motor.
• Precision holes are pre-drilled for plumb bobs, to make it easy to accurately square the MM K-member to the Mustang chassis during installation.
• Factory Ford K-Members weigh an average of 50 lb. The MM K-member weighs only 36lb, for a 28% weight savings.
