Lowered it!

Well, even though I tried to convince myself it didn't need to be lowered, it did. I installed Steeda Sport springs, Koni STR.T's, and GT500 strut mounts. All I can say is wow!

The ride is more taut, not stiff. Nose dive greatly reduced, less body roll. No problems with driveways or speed bumps.(so far) This is how it should come from the factory.

Before:







After:

Not positive, but:

"The vehicle jacking points are
shown here, and can be identified
by the triangle markings on the
vehicle. Details are depicted on the
yellow warning label on the jack."

My wife said "What are those?"

Great looking car, Great choice with the Steeda Sports!

http://www.steeda.com/store/steeda-s...t-springs.html

If anyone else is looking to drop their Mustang with springs, shocks, mounts, then let me know, I can help provide pricing for forum members. I am just a PM away.

Best Regards,

TJ
