Thanks. All springs were replaced about 20 years ago.
 
I just went from SD 4 1/2 mid eyes with 1" lowering blocks to GW reverse eyes with Del-A-Lum bushings I got from @LastDeadLast without the blocks. Not surprisingly raised the rear an inch. The car has got to gain a few pounds before weigh in at the Cam Challenge this summer and that should help level things out. 25" tires on 17x8" wheels. All the front end stuff in my sig.

I'm not a fan of 17" wheels on a Mustang...that being said, I do like the looks of your car and wheel/tire combo and the stance. Nice!

Yeah, me either. This is all about personal preference though. Some like stock with a slightly nose high attitude and plenty of clearance underneath, some like a nose down and rear up drag car look. I happen to like dead level and just enough air underneath to clear mother frickin' speed bumps.
 
620 -1" coils, 1" Arning drop, 4 leaf HD rear with -2" blocks, 215/60-15 on 15x7 4.25" BS in these pics. Later went to 245/60-15 on the rear. These are the old pics. When I go live again I will likely be 16x8 all around with 225/50 and 245/50.

I was under the impression that the rear Bilsteins are all the same and only different valving on the front shocks.

No, like the front there's a matching rear. Street, Sport and Track. The Bilsteins are amazing, I can go blasting down a bumpy washboard road like it was a perfectly flat road. I don't think twice about road condition
