Click to expand...

The springs should be in the A-Arms and the struts should be attached to the spindle (our cars have struts in the front and shocks in the back).

If the car really doesnt have springs in it i'd really like to see a picture of it.

lovin the n00bs lol

the fox mustang does not have a coil-over style strut, just a modified macpherson system with seperate strut and spring. the coil spring will sit somewhat behind the strut between the lower control arm and K-frame. look closer, its there...or you sure aint driving very far

yep , your springs are there buddy , just look behind the strut . stockers are black so they may be hard to see . a spring change is very easy on these cars , just drop the a-arm and pop the stockers out , in most cases aftermarket lowering springs will go in without a spring compressor .

I have a nice set of dropzone springs I will sell you if interested . I recently put the on my car and drove it once so they are virtually brand new , the drop was a little too much for me , probably about 1.75" front and rear .

let me know I'll let em go for a nice price .
