IIRC, Stephane (1TallMF) runs the Intrax springs. Hopefully he'll chime in here with comments about them.

i ran them ... the 2" drop ones ... they are purple ... i still have the rears on ... i sold the fronts over a year ago.

when i had the fronts on, it was, in my opinion, too low. the car would bottom out regularly and scrape on speed bumps. then i got coil overs for the front, and they have had their own issues. all this is why i'm going back to stock springs and struts. with the 410, maybe it won't be too high. at this point, i just want something that i can get in and go without having to worry about scraping or rattles.

the rear is also, in my opinion, too low. now i have stock springs as well, and MM adjustable lower control arms. i can adjust the ride height with those, after i get them on the car that is

i have a bunch of pics of the car with them here:

oh, by the way, i didn't have c/c plates and even with the best alignment they could do with the stock setup, the tires wore out in about a year.

so definately get c/c plates

and fwiw ... i don't care for sig pics in general ...

You can resize that one and use it, just so long as it fits within the guidelines of the StangNet Terms of Service of 650 pixels wide x 150 high. Either way, it does have to be resized though.

My buddy ran those in his Fox & still has them on his 01 bullit...the look is killer, but they ride pretty rough & do bottom out from time to time. If u want that look I suggest Coilovers, which are very pricey, or maybe Sportlines can get u close to that stance & they are better quality than Intrax....

I run MM coilovers & adjustable rear lca's & my ride is very firm, but it never bottoms out...

If u do go with any type of lowering spring u should always get the cc plates or else u will be going through tires at a rapid pace...I prefer Maximum Motorsports plates because they are the strongest since they are a 4 bolt design, & they are easy to use & have a very wide range of adjustment....

Looking like Tuesday or Wednesday it should be here.

I'm going try to hit the meet on Thursday if all goes according to plan -- not sure if the fact that the headers are sitting on the starter are going to cause me to have to pull them off to modify them or get a smaller starter.
