I lied, Sunday. I have been recruited to help someone move before thunderstorms roll in. It's killing me, the parts are sitting on my kitchen/bar counter.

I just set up camp in the garage and finally did it. It's not as easy as I was told or the instructions lead you to believe. There are four 7mm bolts at the bottom of the honeycomb grill and it's not easy to get anything in there to remove them. But, it was worth the hassle.


Now, should I lower it?

The Ford Racing Springs (C model) are on the way. They should drop the front 1 1/8 inch and the rear 7/8".

Man, you just hate my wheels don't you?

umm, personally, yes, but its up to you not me.

PS- your car would look hot with welds or bogart D-10s or bullits or 00 R facotry finish wheels and/or a cowl hood.
stock hood and 1 1/2 inch cowl are best for your car, or 00 R

you just love to tell everyone else how to spend their money away in a matter of minutes, don't you?

edit: btw guys, 90% is WAY too high, and can someone emphasise that the # of posts doesn't matter if they are just wasted space that we have to scroll past on threads! sometimes its annoying!

I don't bow to peer pressure, I'm too stubborn.

Okay, the springs showed up today. UPS guy was getting ready to put a sticker on my door when I showed up. Install, Thursday after work. I'll be ready for the show in Williamsburg/Newport News on Saturday. Pending rain of course.

Dang, that's a pretty good price. Post some pics when you get them on, maybe that will be a next mod.

BTW, i'm getting my car striped black this weekend by a friend!

I got them on but I'm going to wait until Saturday (going to a show) or Sunday to take pictures, give them time to settle a little more. It's already an improvement in looks but the ride is alot better!
