99 gt conv Suspension
 
Have a 99 GT conv seems very floaty in the rear at highway speeds.
Thinking about some springs and tokico adjustable shocks.
Or should I just do a thicker rear sway bar?
What do you guys think?

thanks
dave

I'd do springs and shocks. How many miles on it ? Might want to check
the existing sway bar and see if it's not broken. Also, when you have
grooves in the road running parallel with the road the rear of the
mustang (on 2 different ones I own/owned) starts tramlining. Weird
feeling and freaked me out the first time it happened. Some tires
don't do it, some do.

the "floaty" experience would be helped by the sway bar... and it would
be cheaper than suspension (and easier to install).

Check your tire pressure. 80% of the time your tires are under
pressured. This will definetely cause a floaty feel at highway speeds.
