05 GT500 parts on a 09 base V6
 

I have a chance to buy these 2005 GT 500 parts very cheap, a standard set of GT front and rear springs,a set of front struts and rear shocks along with a front sway bar from a GT500 (brand new take-off) stock GT rear mufflers (off a car with 15K km) My question is Will these suspension parts fit my 2009 Base V6 Convertible? Also as for the mufflers, I am planning on running duals on my V6. Will the mufflers work? Any information would a great help, before I put out any cash for parts that I may or may not be able to use.

Thanks in advance

The stuff should work with minor hassels. The only thing for the dual mufflers is that you will need to trim your V6 bumper to fit the tail pipe of the second muffler, and you will need the body mount muffler/exhaust hangers to hold it in place, and the dual pipes that run before it.

That's good news. I already have the GT rear bumper cover, just have to put it on.

Well, I bought everything from him. The parts are from a GT500. The struts part # is 7R3V-18045-GB Shocks part # 7R3V-18080 The tag was ripped off the sway but, it is a heavy one with 2 mounting holes on each side. From some research I did GT500 sway bars have 2 holes per side. I also got the rear GT bumper, spoiler and the 2 mufflers all for $200.00. Mind you I had to drive 2 hours to pick them up in my 2011 5.3 liter GMC 4X4. About $80.00 in fuel. So now my question is: What kind of ride can I expect when I change out the struts, shocks and sway bar on my 09 base Convertible?

2 hours of driving and $80 in fuel. Time for an F150 Ecoboost lol.

Make that 2 hours each way.

Cool stuff. Should work out for you well!:tup
Not bad in all reality in fuel cost for a 4 hour total trip either.

Oh that makes more sense.

You scored on the parts. My only concern is the GT500 front springs - the GT500's engine is heavier than your V6's. Will swapping the front springs make any difference in ride height at all?

I will be leaving my original springs in. I noticed that the tags on the struts say "coupe" I'm hoping that they will fit. I would have been happy with the bumper, spoiler and the 2 mufflers for that price. Everything at that price was a bonus. He had to get them out of the garage because he and his wife split up, she wanted the parts gone. He also had to sell his Mustang and she got the house. He moved into an apartment and he had no where to keep his stuff. All he had left were the pictures of his Baby (The Mustang) on his Blackberry.
