Info on Suspension Geometry changes S550->S650

[JediMindTrix]

some info
front and rear MagneRide struts/shocks are the same, it's the main computer that got upgraded, but the non-MagneRide struts/shocks are brand new.
front knuckles and hubs are brand new, rear knuckles are new, but the hubs are existing unless you have the carbon fiber wheels, then they're new.
most all sway bar parts are not new.
front subframe is new.
rear lower control arm is new.
pretty much everything in the steering column is new, but there's still 3 universal joints.

so many parts are new that its not safe to assume anything at this point, but i'm hoping that old wheels and stuff still work with no issue

This is good information. Sorry, if this has already been discussed elsewhere. I had purchased M-5300-W for my previous MagneRide equipped Mustang and loved the look and performance (https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-5300-W) Do we think since the shocks are still the same on the MagneRide struts that something like this would be considered carryover to the S650?

They are not. It has been mentioned that there is a new version this year.

Thanks! Do you know where it’s been mentioned the shocks are of new design for MagneRide?

your best bet is to wait until Ford Performance can confirm they work. otherwise, you are taking the risk on your own
