H&R Sport Springs

bluecar · Feb 3, 2008

I finally put the front ones on. I had just the rear ones for months but the front ones bring back the raked look of the car. 7/8" in back 1" in front.

Looks just right and you still have plenty of clearance for speed bumps and driveways.

Should of came that way, are you listening Ford?

WOW ...thats great ..I have the Super Sports you think that might be to low on the stockers !!??

bluecar · Feb 3, 2008

Well, on the Super Sports, you're looking at close to a 2"drop and 25-30% increase in stiffness. IMO, that's a lot unless you're planning on 20 inch wheels some time in the near future. It might be too much if you plan to keep the stock wheels.

+1 Looks good while still retaining the ability to encounter every road condition.
I've already had my first scraping of the chin spoiler leaving a gas station's side entrance...going slow and at an angle. All it did was scuff underneath a bit. Can't see it from the front.

I bought my intake cover, springs, Steeda strut mounts and Steeda adjustable panhard bar from StangSuspension as well. They have excellent service and relatively quick free/inexspensive shipping In fact, I got a call from them this past Friday evening asking how my install went with the springs/strut mounts and how I liked them! I will order from them again for sure!

I got the Classic spoiler. I've already scraped it once so I'm glad I didn't get the Agressive one!

Ya i got the H&R Super Sports from them for 119 shipped ! Someone got them and then changed there mine ! Great Customer service. Plus they have great items.. So you have the classic,.. Was the install pretty easy.. (sorry to highjack the thread guys )

Rear was easy. The front was more involved. Something about removing ball joints and control arms (?). Then we ran into a problem with the tie rod ends being shot (after 8600 miles!). Of course, the wheels had to be realigned after the whole process.

I asked for 2 separate bills. One for the tie rod ends and alignment so I can bill it to Ford and a second bill to actually change out the springs (that I'll have to pay out of pocket).

The service person helping me wrote the bills so that Ford would take the brunt of the cost. Wish me luck on recovering the $$ (I hav 7/75000 warranty)

Kooldawg, bummer about the chin spoiler.

Whyask, how 'bout pics when you're done?
