Anyone have a pic of their car with these springs on? I want to buy springs for my car soon and dump the 4x4 gap, but I don't want to have to get caster/camber plates and was thinking of keeping for the ford racing theme going on my car.

Which ones? I had "C" sprins and man did they look awesome but the car was too low for me. You have to cut the 2 dead coils off the back to even it out though. Man it did look nice. Sorry I dont have any pics.

I run Ford C springs on my vert and I really like them. They dont cost much and lowered my car to what I think is the perfect amount. I do have to be careful around steep driveways and speed bumps. I don't have caster/camber plates either.

chaos254, it sits raked right? Mine looked jacked in the back. I kinda got used to it and liked it. It may have looked better with LARGE tires in back. The rear springs are made for dragers and have 2 dead coils that make it site higher but can be cut.

Hmm.. are you absolutely sure they are "c" springs? Your car looks real good but it appears to sit like my Eibach's. My car was way lower in the front. I bought them straight from Summit.

Heres my car with C-springs. I think it sits perfect and they are very reasonably priced.

Mine were racked much more like ProKiller but my front sat lower than that , more like Black Stampede, lol. I think they sit differently on verts.

my other stang had pro-kit eibach and i think i like this look better. those pictures actually make it seem worse, the staggered look that is. i don't have any straight on side shots on my work computer.

Yeah, looks like the verts extra weight in the rear is perfect for the rear, so if I looks too raked I can always cut away part of the dead coil. Thanks guys! Looks like C springs it is for me

FRPP "B" springs. Great ride! Closest to the stock spring rate I could find.

Click to expand...

Yeah I ended up cutting my backs twice to get them where they are. Didn't sit low enough the first time.

I don't necessarily think the vert thing has much to do with it. I cut mine a decent amount.
