I would like to see any pictures of fox bodies on 18's wheels, but only if you know what springs are on the car. Im trying to decide my ride heigth, and need some visual candy to help me decide.

Thanks in advance!

How is your ride quality with the prokit? Ive swapped mine to carb, and lost alot of weight in the front, so im worried it might not sit low enough in the front :shrug:
 
am i going to have to second mortgage my house for some quality coilovers?

Depends, how much is your house worth? j/k .......... it's definately more expensive but you can do just the front and then the rear later and vice versa. I had the pro-kit on my car and was very happy with the ride and height. After I went coilover then I realized what I was missing. Also, a lot of guys do coilover front and coil spring rear so that is a thought for you too.

I dont know much about them besides the cost being higher.... im guessing the coilovers are completely adjustable?

i was looking at spending around 500 for springs and adjustable struts... is that about the same ballpark as coilovers? or are they alot more expensive?
 
My 89.. Saleen springs, KB Trackit brackets in the rear (lowers additional .5")

Thats about exactly how i want my car to sit.... Could you explain a little more about the trackit brackets as in, where do they attach, is modding anything needed... the reason i ask is i have mega bite jr LCA's, and boxed uppers, is that going to allow me to use something like that, or is it designed for stock LCA's?

Also, are there different types of the saleen springs, or do they only make 1 for the fox body?

The brackets relocate where the lower control arm mounts and yes you have to redrill the rear mounting point. They should work with any lower control arm and are supposed to help with traction, but I just wanted to lower the rear about 1/2" without cutting the spring. KB is (was) local to Indy, so I got them along with their lower control arms. I have pictures somewhere, or I can take some this weekend.

Good LucK!

Id appreciate it. This is my next purchase here within a few weeks, and i dont mind spending a little extra on the stuff as long as it sits right.

I was just looking up coilover kits and holy moly!!! 1200-1600 !!!!
 
Ok, your car has convinced which way im going if i dont end up getting coilovers..... who am i kidding, im not getting coilovers, i cant afford them.

I will probably get the same pro kit you have and either the tokico adjustables or the KYB adjustables.
