Ford Racing C-Springs installed *before and after pics*

[95CobraStang]

I just finished an install of Ford Racing C-springs. I have before and after pics taken basically from the same spot, so it's a great comparison. I couldn't be happier with the drop and looks. It has a real raked look- just what I was going for!!

Question: how many days should I let the springs settle, until i get it aligned?

here's from the front corner:

Not bad
Some people say 1 week, some people say a month before getting an alignment.


I didn't get one after my Eibach Pro kit, car has been driving nice and straight.

Looks great!!! Makes me want to get my C springs on the car soon.

BTW, how's the ride on the new springs? Which shocks/struts did you use?

I have the c springs and havent noticed the car wandering or any abnormal tire wear in the 5K I have had them on there. I would wait it out a few weeks to see if you need an alignment first. No need to spend the cash if you dont have to.

The ride is a bit more harsh than stock but not bad by any means. Its a bit bouncy with stock shocks/struts so I would swap when you switch springs. I have the mach 1s on the way so hopefully that will stiffen things up a bit more.

I wasn't able to drive more than a block, due to weather. I'll post a little later on today, when I get to take it around.

I left the factory shocks and struts for now, I'm gonna see how much I can get out of them before switching to some adjustables.

So far tho, i'm just really impressed with the stance of the car and the cheap price of the springs!

Looks great! I've got a set of FRPP B springs waiting for installation, and if my stance ends up looking like yours, I'll be quite a happy man.

BTW I love the raked look as well...

The ride isn't the main concern, generally it will still drive straight, but tire wear is where you may see a problem. It's usually hard to notice at first but it seems that most end up getting a little unusual wear after a while. If not, no worries.
