Eibach Pro springs w/ Ford Mounts - too noisy
I'm currently running an Eibach Pro kit with the "upgraded" Ford factory mounts on my 08 GT/CS.
I am not happy with this setup. It makes a lot of noise.
I am considering going to a Steeda setup - mounts and springs. Or should I just go with Steeda mounts and keep the Eibachs?
Looking for input. Thanks!

I bet if you grab a set of the Steeda upper strut mounts it will take care of that.
Im not a pro on suspensions....but I think everyone agrees not to reuse your stock
upper mounts w/new springs.

Until recently I had been riding the stock shocks and struts w/the pro springs so I know what you're going through. You definitely need to switch up that setting, Bill @ CJPony Parts recommended FRPP shocks and struts which is what I had them do. It's night and day from what I was running. Definitely made the 1250 mile trip from NJ to Fl a much nicer, quieter and less pounding ride. Good luck!

Steeda gives you zero noise and you adjustability, which ford clearly doesn't.

if it's clunking check the end-links first. You have to put the front on jackstands and then raise and lower the a-arm with a jack to make sure the end-link is not loose, there is a spot that's *just-the-right-spot* that if they're loose the arm will raise/drop and the link won't. It drove me nuts on mine, was going to replace the mounts and it ended up being the end-link. Sometimes it's a ***** getting it just right but basically you have to make sure there is no pressure or slack on the link otherwise it will feel tight.
Check it first, save some $$$$.
