Shelby’s widebody package for the sixth-gen Mustang has officially
launched. Available directly from Shelby and its many authorized modification
shops worldwide, the widebody package is much more than a simple set of flared
wheel arches.
Instead, the new arches, which add 4 inches to the
rear track and 2.5-inch at the front, have been paired with optional adjustable
coilover suspension, beefed up brakes, hardened wheel studs, stronger spindles
and hubs, as well as a set of new wheels and tires. What’s more, the package
includes the front spindle, front hub bearings, control arms, lateral links,
and tie rod ends from the almighty Mustang GT350.
Of these available parts, it is the coilovers that
are sure to most excite Mustang owners. Developed by Penske, the new suspension
allows users to adjust ride height, independent compression, and rebound.
Consequently, owners will have all the adjustments necessary to create a supple
and forgiving road car as well as a performance monster tuned for the track.
Owners of the 2015 and later Shelby GT350 can order
the complete catalog of modifications for US$ 18,995. For regular 2015 and later
Mustang owners, that price rises to US$ 26,995. Owners of 2015 and later Shelby
Super Snakes can get the kit for US$ 22,995.
