That was my exact idea too, I had actually forgotten that you had bought those smoked fogs. I have been looking for some already smoked and I swear someplace sells them but I can't find them. Maybe they stopped selling them.
I think CJPony Parts has them. I tried getting them from Stangmods once and they discontinued them.

I'll look it up.

How are you liking the phone? Is the speaker as quiet as they say?

I'm going to pick like 5, and get them on a CD, it's expensive, but totally worth it. I do have a rather large change check to go pick up next week...

Loving the phone, The navigation capabilities it has are great and the fact that I can do a Google search for a place and get the option to navigate there is the best thing since sliced bread. But yes the speaker is a little quite, however not much different from my BB storm.

Well this was a little more than that. For everything I'm about $950 in the hole . But it was so worth the cost.

The car is so easy to drive with the 4.10's & it just runs great. I love the highway passing too

The springs did exactly what I wanted them to do, it's no longer looks 4WD (as Gary would say) but it's not so low it looks lowered. The ride is great, If anything I think it's better now than before.

Overall I got about a 3/4" drop all around. I was at 28 3/4" front and 29 3/16" in the rear. Now as she sits with about 50 miles on the springs the front is at 28" and the rear is at 28 5/16". I assume over the next few weeks the springs will settle a little more and I may see another 1/8" or so.


Sooooo now for a lil pic whoring

Before the drop:





And...











drum roll please...













After the drop:

Those are some great shots David.

Car looks great Jim. It's amazing how a car's look changes even with a mild drop. On my Mustang's case, it actually rose up like an inch w the termi front springs. The stockers were cut by the idiot previous owner

That's great Jim. Congrats!

The car looks good. Real good.

As far as the 4.10's it's amazing isn't it. You wanna kick yourself for not doing it sooner. My favorite was second gear. It pulls like a twin turbo tractor in 2nd. First is ok, but when you get the RPM's up and shift to second its like the Starship Enterprise going into warp speed. I freakin' love it.

Also it was amazing how I could pass in 5th easily too. The car was a dog in 5th before, but with 4.10's it pulls in every gear!

The only drawback is alot more shifting in the city. I find myself shifting in the middle of turns because 1rst is just wound too high when you are pulling out of a driveway or turning at a stop light. You end up having to shift to second right at the apex.
