sounds crazy I know, but I swear it happened - anyone else see this happen or am I truly nuts ? My castor/camber seems off a little too now. My tires seem to have tilted in just bit, and made my steering a little cruddier (word?) I guess it's finally time for me to get cc plates - any suggestions for a "good enough" brand of cc plates ?

Steeda 4 bolt - not exactly cheap, but how much are you tires worth to you? As well as getting down the 1320 in a straight line without feeling like your hanging on for dear life?

I'm having trouble wrapping my mind around this one. Struts don't control ride height, springs do. If your springs and struts are old a tired, new struts should lift the front end a bit. I put Cobra struts on mine (the Cobra is about 3/4-1" lower than the GT) with no change in ride height. Are they the correct struts for your year car.

yeah says 94 and up Mustang GT up.

I honestly don't get it either. I do like the ride height though. I'll take some pics, and let y'all decide once I get the rear shocks in the car. Then I'll have pics of that too.

BTW how does that little blown wagon run ?
