Running
Gear from 1987-2004 Mustangs
The original FFR Roadster was
based on the innovation of using running gear from a single modern donor
vehicle, namely the high performance Mustang. The concept is so
simple… If you have our kit and a 1987-2004 Mustang GT donor car, you
already have all the parts you need to build and drive your car!
1987-2004 Mustangs
are a good source of performance parts.
Using as many parts
from the Mustang as possible is one affordable way to go.
We chose the Mustang running gear for a number of reasons, but mostly because it has established itself as the performance bargain of the last two decades. The earlier Mustang 302 V-8 is the exact same block that powered the original vintage AC Cobrasâ and Fordâ GT-40’s to World Championships in the 60’s. Over a million Mustangs were built between 1987 and 2004 and the performance aftermarket for these parts is well established.
The “donor car” path is not the only way to build an FFR. You can also bypass donor parts and buy the remaining mechanical parts from a variety of sources both new and used. This adds some expense but is not too hard to do. Over the years we have modified the kit to be able to accommodate a variety of engine, drive-train, and suspension choices. Over half of our customers today build their kit using engine/drive train parts from a donor Mustang, whereas the remainder elect to buy all new parts or a combination thereof.

There is perhaps nothing more confusing and frustrating than trying to figure out what you get, and more importantly, what you don’t get with some of the kits manufactured today. We consider a standard part as something you’ll need to drive the car that doesn’t come from the Mustang. We hate the idea of selling a ton of options. It’s laughable how some companies will call a windshield, or a steering wheel optional (or side exhaust or roll bar or seat belts for that matter!). In all fairness, the custom aspect of what we build and sell makes it hard to produce a “one-size fits all” package. The donor Mustang concept is a very powerful one since the regular kit comes with everything you need to complete your car except the donor parts. With the advent of different powertrains and suspensions however, figuring out what you get and what you’ll need are still complicated questions. We’ll be glad to help you sort through the details. This section tells you exactly what comes with the standard roadster kit. If you would like to see the actual packlist for the standard kit you can check it out on our website or you can review a hard copy in the assembly manual. |

Owing to the complexity of different Mustang parts from 1987 to 2004, we have two simple packages that address these parts differences. Basically, all the kit parts that we provide are interchangeable except for a few items. Customer who use Mustang parts from 1996 to 2004 get a few extra parts and don’t need some others. Parts identified in the preceding list with an asterisk * are replaced with the following parts for customers using 1996-2004 donor cars. |

Donor Parts (what else do I need?)
|
|
|
Now that you
know exactly what comes in our kit, you need to know what is required
to finish your project. If you aren’t going to buy a Mustang for
parts you can take a copy of our bill of materials list (in the assembly
manual) and procure the remaining parts separately. Many people will
decide to buy some new parts. If you decide to do this you
can call us for an accurate parts list of Ford and aftermarket parts that
you’ll need to finish the job (it’s also in the manual). If you
are using parts from a single donor car, expect to pay around
$2,000-$3,000 for the entire vehicle. If you source the parts
separately, buying some parts new and some used, expect to pay a bit more.
The parts listed below are what you will need to take from the 1987-2004
Mustang. The assembly manual includes this list broken down to the
nut and bolt level. |
