I wonder why it is that only a few people have all the problems. I have Steeda springs and no noise however I have not hung on a load of other parts to go road racing on the week ends or add to my brag list.

I know that some early production springs had a problem with the clocking. I checked the clocking on mine and they are correct. Gus at Steeda told me that none of the springs with the improper clocking made it out the door. The springs clocking should be 180 degrees from top to bottom.

The reason that I am in the process of replacing all of my suspension is that it is the weakest link for open track events. I also have roughly 550 1/4 mile passes on the car.

Even with all of these suspension mods the handling of the Mustang isn't up to par with my 1990 CRX-Si with full autocross suspension.

As far as a brag list. I never knew that suspension was something that impressed people. I would think that a body kit, aftermarket wheels, or a supercharger would impress people.

I better cancell the Steeda street wing, hood, and wheels I may be trying to impress people

I tell you one thing dude. I am not impressed with this Black Roach looking thing. WOW! all those runs down the 1/4. Did you win any or were you just having fun trying out your Steeda parts?

First of all that Black Roach looking thing has over 200,000 miles on it.
It still has original paint and drivetrain.

As far as the 1/4 Mile goes sometimes I win and sometimes I lose.
I don't have anything to prove to anyone I'm just having fun.

Just so you know the JDM prepared lightning runs low 11's.
