Every Ricer would think Im nuts, but Ive actually got my Stang RAISED last week!!! /forums/images/icons/smile.gif
Yes, thats right, I didnt get it lowered, but raised! /forums/images/icons/wink.gif
The front end was ridiculously low, and it wasnt very streetable with the power steering hose as well as the PS bracket (I have Tri Y headers) being just a few inches above the ground.
So Ive bought the blue 1" lowering coil springs from Mustangs Unlimited, and got them installed.
Well, the car looks way better IMO, and it is way more streetable as ground clearance is higher (of course).
It rides a bit stiffer as well, which is good, as certain bumps in the street arent as worse as theyve used to be. After all its another improvement to my Stang! /forums/images/icons/smile.gif Yeah.
I wish I had measured before and after, but I didnt. So I can only estimate that the new springs raised the car like 2 to 3".
