If your classic Ford leans hard in corners, feels unstable during lane changes, or simply doesn’t inspire confidence behind the wheel, it may be time for a handling upgrade. One of the easiest and most effective ways to dramatically improve cornering performance is with a larger front sway bar, and that’s exactly where the CPP549 Front Sway Bar Kit from Classic Performance Products comes in. Designed for classic Ford platforms including the 1964–66 Mustang, Falcon, Ranchero, and Comet, the CPP549 helps reduce body roll, improve steering response, and create a more stable driving experience without sacrificing street comfort.

If you’re heading to the C10 Nationals Texas, now’s the perfect time to upgrade your truck and save while you’re at it.

If you’re building a 1955–57 Chevy, one of the smartest upgrades you can make isn’t flashy paint or bigger wheels, it’s your front suspension and braking system. That’s where CPP’s Modular Spindles & Brackets (Part #5557SDBK) come in. This setup gives your Tri-Five Chevy the foundation for modern braking performance, a clean, lowered stance, and the flexibility to build your system your way.

Bigger Brake upgrades for all of your CPP big brake kits are available and ready to fill in your 18”+ wheels without breaking the bank!

Upgrade Your Classic Chevy or Nova the Right Way. When it comes to improving the stopping power of your classic GM build, a front disc brake conversion is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make. Whether you're working on a Nova, Camaro, or Chevelle, upgrading from outdated drum brakes to modern disc brakes delivers better performance, safety, and confidence behind the wheel. At Classic Performance Products, we design our brake kits to bolt on cleanly while delivering modern braking performance for your vintage ride.
