Has anyone lowered an 03/04 Cobra with less that a 1.5" drop. I have been looking for 3/4" or a 1" drop and all I have seen is 1.5" at all four corners.

Thanks,
sawman

Get H&R's for a 1.5 inch drop and some 3/8 inch Undy spacers in the back with some 10.5 inch bullet rims and 335's.

H&R SS are the one's to get, they will drop you lower than what you are looking for though.

Does the lowering have any negative effect on the irs on the cobra?

Looking for less than the 1.5" which seems to be the only one available. I already have the 10.5" rims in the rear. They are stock style just WIDE. 315/35 BFgoodrich KD's out back.

this might be stupid, but have you checked steeda, or actual factory springs, I see stuff all the time about c springs or something. www.injectedracing.com/ A friend of mine owns his own shop, he might have some idea for you. And the H&R SS springs are going to be a lot lower than you probably want. good luck though, chris

I have the new Steeda springs. I was worried about height due to speed bumps and I was putting on a 3 inch exhaust. No worries with either issue. The springs dropped it about 1 inch in the front and 3/4 inch in the back but I did use a 1/4 inch spring isolator. I probably could have used the stock isolators with no problem and I might take them out in the future. Ride is about the same as before, but I have full length subframe connectors and a shock tower brace in the trunk so its already pretty firm. Here is a pic.



Here is one stock height.

I think the Eibach Pro Kit would make for a nice drop on your Cobra!
They make quality springs.
