Lowering springs

[ninjastang125]

I have been looking into lowering my car for a while now but dont know what springs to go with. The car sees alot of track time so i dont want springs that are not going to distribute weight. My question is what springs will lower my car and still let me see good track times. Pic are welcome

Well anything that lowers the car will throw off the ability to transfer weight. In addition, the OEM springs are pretty soft and the shorter springs are quite stiff (most of em), further hampering the weight transfer. That said, I'd do the Ford "B" springs (part # M-5300-B ) and, more importantly, get some adjustable or drag specific shocks. Also, for additional weight transfer 'stretching', unbolt the front sway bar. Some people remove it all together (and take advantage of the additional weight loss), but that's not the main reason to mess with it. The main reason is the fact that the sway bar limits the amount the front end can lift, thereby shifting weight to the rear. I'd simply unbolt the end links, then reattach em before heading home from the track.
Best of Luck!

I suggest you check out This site and look into the heritage of the company and who they manufacture suspension parts for. I lowered the old mans 99 with these as well as several other Fords and have to say thus far they are my favorite. In fact my 91 has them. My 98 had eibachs and I thought the ride was terrible.
