Ok, I may be snagging some Bullit springs and throwing them on a 97 GT vert. I have heard that the front may sit a hair higher, so I was thinking about taking a half of a coil from the front and either a 1/4 or 0 from the rear. Anywhoo, with the 94-98 it is suppossed to drop it 1" and 99+ .75. Please let me know if I should cut from the top or the bottom on the:
Front: ??
Rear: ??

Not really looking for a lecture on cutting some coil, but just an answer to my question please

I'd do 1/2 front/rear, make that **** scrape.

My coils were cut to the tune of 2", and that's a stock spring!

Always gotta be somebody that cant help but defy the rules.... I guess that gives me job security Anywhoo....I was going to start my suspension with the whole Bullit set up and go from there. Now I changed my mind, and bought an Eibach Pro Kit. I want the tokico's but may have to wait 2-3 months, until we move into our new house first. I am going to try to snag some caster camber plates that I may be able to get for a good price. Through time I will be going through all of the suspension and brakes, etc. I posted some good material on Mustang suspensions in the 4.6 tech section. You might check it out seeing as how you have no mods
