    I need some advice

    I think those will help until you upgrade. I just swapped out my 154000 mile springs and shocks/struts and it made a world of difference. I think the rear springs were shot, the car rode lower in the back with the stock springs than the new lowered springs.

    Stolen 1990 5.0

    Sorry to hear it. I'll keep an eye on out. Check Craigslist often. If I see any parts that I suspect might be yours I'll let you know.

    Post pics of how your foxbody currently sits

    The rims hit the control arm on full lock on the steering wheel. The tires rub on large bumps but nothing bad. The car sits on Ford Racing B and Tokico HPs. Just installed. Thanks for the compliment.

    installing eibach prokit springs

    I just installed the Ford Racing springs. It's a bitch. I used a spring compressor and had to use spacers on the tool to give it enough compression without letting the bolt come out the top coils. I used isolators on top and bottom. Once my pops and I did one side, the other was much easier...

    How do you find the best deals for your stang?

    Justin, Thanks for posting this information. The shipping info and discount info especially. I haven't bought from you for these two reasons. Looks like I'm going to. And especially since you carry more of the restoration items than other shops.

    Your stangistory? What is it?

    My pops bought me a 1983 GT that had an engine fire when I was 15. I already had a custom bug but soon got the Mustang to work. I changed the front to Aero, this was I think in 1990 or 91. Then, after dropping out of cars for a while, picked up this 2006. Sold it shortly after my son was...

    How do you low budget guys keep motivated?

    I've been doing the same thing for the most part. I typically only buy parts on sale or with some kind of discount. Right now waiting to buy new overflow bottle to replace cooling system (hoses, them, etc). I'm not in a rush but I wish I could drop the cash to buy it all at once. I know I have a...

    any fitment problems with 17x10 4 lug 10th anniversary wheels on 89GT?

    The wheels are on for those who were wondering. I ended up with 255/40/17 and 275/40/17 Toyo Proxes 4. I "massaged the inner fender with a mallet a little and removed the quad shocks. I just drove it to my place about 10 miles. I'll check to see if there are is any rubbing but I am pretty good...

    Any "big brake" options for us guys who want to stick with the 4-lug wheels?

    Why is it hard to understand. Not everybody wants to go 5 lug. I bought my project car because I love mustangs and foxes are special to me. I've had an s197 and it was a great car with much better brakes. Point is I bought the car to have fun with, not to race or stop on a dime. If I wanted more...
