Detroit Speed, Inc. received the Best New Product Award in the Street Performance Category at the 2025 SEMA show for its new Fox Body SLA kit.

“We’re honored to receive the SEMA New Product Award for the Fox Body Mustang, Short Long Arm Conversion System. This recognition validates the innovative approach our team took to bring modern performance to the Fox Body platform,” said Nate Peterman, Senior Product Manager.

Nate added, “The recognition for our Fox Body SLA Kit is just the start. Our team is committed to developing new solutions that keep enthusiasts excited about what’s next.”

Detroit Speed’s Short Long Arm (SLA) Suspension Conversion redefines Fox Body handling with a no-compromise double wishbone design. This system replaces the outdated factory suspension with modern geometry, increased strength, and race-proven adjustability, delivering premium fit, finish, and performance.

We recently featured Detroit Speed’s innovative FN988 differential, which combines the best of the legendary Ford 9-inch rearend with the benefits of the more modern 8.8. The company, based out of Mooresville, North Carolina, has long been at the forefront of the suspension and pro touring parts market. This latest award-winning product is just the latest offering in that lineup.
