Ordered these yesterday from CJ Pony; w/5% discount was abt $90. Nowhere in the purchase nor checkout process was there any indication they were out of stock. 
UPDATE: Got my confirmation from CJPony - of course NOW they tell me the mounts are "Backordered". Inconsiderate Bastards...
Let's hope Ford has its production scheduling in better shape than Koni...

And yes, I am 'enjoying' it.... 
Seriously, today is a "good" day: it's our 17th Anniversary, and we have our annual reservations all set at the Bonefish Grill tonight (it's our 'tradition').

This sucks, like many of you's have found out by calling different suppliers or vendors, i too was told that the Koni's will be back ordered for a while. Was hoping that a CDN supplier would have a set sitting on a shelf somewhere, but no luck.
Man, we just want to get this economy going.....get this plant in Holland rolling 24 hrs.

I've mapped it out from my surgery date and if all goes well (as if any of it has so far), the date I should be able to once again drive my car will be Tuesday JULY 12, 2011. So as long as the Konis come in by then and Ford isn't as behind on their strut mounts I'll be golden.

Ouch, July 12th........
I know, i shouldn't be complaining but............
If by any chance you get your Koni's before mine and are not able to install them, you may as well sell them to me and get yours later ! How's that for a deal.

Thanks for the scoop........but........
Funny you've mentionned that as i just Called Ted today to see if he had some in stock, and it was my lucky day, he had a set on display and bought them on the spot. If anyone is interested, he has a few sets still up for sale. I got mine for $369 CDN. He can ship to the US no problem.
I also got a set of Lloyd mats with the 5.0 logo . Nice stuff.
How much did you pay yours Mart ?
Here is a pic.

I got the Sports since I need the adjustment for my track days
; I think they were around $700. I also installed some Brembos, Steeda Sports, Hotchkis double adjustable swaybars et SS lines

Cool stuff Mart,
Yeah of course you needed the adj dampers. But i won't probably see any track time with this car. I'd like to go to Tremblant, but i need some more time off from my busy schedule. But who knows, i might go see you one of these days.
How much work is involved in getting these suckers installed. I know the back is pretty straight forward, but the front you have to drop the spindle and get the springs onto the new dampers by using a spring compressor.
Did you do yours yourself !

There are a couple of tricky parts but the only extra tool I needed was a spring compressor. You can rent one of those FREE at Canadian Tire; you give an $80 + tax deposit and they will refund you the total amount when you bring it back.
If you want send me a PM (or email) and we could do your car in my garage; I'm pretty well equiped

I'm pretty well equipped as well, but of course i'm missing the spring compressor. I hate playing with coil springs, i've seen one go balistic once, and scared the hell out of me. Fortunately, it wasn't my car and me holding the wratchet.
But i think we could arrange something, nothing like one set of hands wrenching and the other holding a nice cold one. ( missing smiley )
Where exactly are u from ! South shore.
I'm in Laval.....
