Springs ?

GT 5spd · Nov 2, 2005

I am considering the steeda sport springs, and the bullitt springs......I would like to see Pics. If anyone has them of a 94-98 model....... and which handels best???

RedBullitt · Nov 2, 2005

the bullitt ones are a subtle drop, on the 99 or so cars they are about an inch all around or so. most of the steeda ones are more of a drop. i run the b springs and i couldnt be happier with them

Steeda's. Not your year but it gives you an idea. The after pics were taken right after install and I think it came down a little more, but not much. Handling is great in turns, but you'll notice bumps more. I'm looking to do the shock/struts next. Maybe that will help with those bumps.

Heck ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GT 5spd · Nov 3, 2005

Looks good man, Anybody else ?

twogts4us · Nov 3, 2005

Yo, 03GTinFLA, funky ruler ya got there...!??! ;-)
Seriously, the shocks and struts will help greatly. Nice ride.

'03GTinFLA · Nov 4, 2005

Yeah I did a little cheap a** photoshop job so that you could see the lines. The pics don't quite look like everything lines up on the ruler but it's just the camera angle. I'm not what one would call a pro at camera's and photoshop.
Hijack coming.
twots4us, what shock/strut combo would you recommend? I think kilgore mentioned Gabriels or something that were cheap. Billsteines are too much for me.

Steeda's sport springs. Not the best pic but its something. More angles if you need them.

Eww, sorry about the size

squares98 · Nov 4, 2005

I just put on Bullitts and I like the stance, it doesnt look 4x4, and it doesnt look lower than necessary. With the sportlines it felt like you were sitting on the ground.

tomustang · Nov 4, 2005

Some spring are hit or miss, usually generate different ride heights even though most of them have close sizes, also with thicker isolators. some of the guys here post a pick with (ie) steeda sports and it'll be lower than anothers

I can vouch for that

Awww, I was just busting on ya bro. But I couldn't imagine putting Gabriels on a new Mustang...might as well put freakin air shocks on it. I dunno, just sounds kinda cheesey.
Agreed Bilsteins are pricey, but on EBay, they aren't much more than Tokico Illumina 5 ways (Bilsteins=$465 vs. Tokico Illuminas=$420).
We're still talking a few bucks here, so, on the next aisle, we have Tokico blue at about $245, or ck with Randy Stinchcomb over http://forums.modulardepot.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=21. Last I saw, the Mach1 Struts and shocks were $164.00 (yep, that's all 4 corners! + $20 shipping...granted, this was a thread in June of this year...so I'm not sure if today's price is similiar)...and the last I recall, the bullitt S&S were about $100 more...no logic to that...they are essentially the same parts, just valved differently. The Bullitt suspension is a handling setup, while the Mach1 stuff is setup for drag racing.

Yeah, I know he is here Tom, but the last I heard, his PM box was closed and he was directing people to MD. There he has his own forum, as I'm sure you know. Typically, what most people do is hit him there for a price, then call him at Liberty Ford with the shipping details and CC info.
I wasn't trying to push people away ftom StangNet, just point them in the proper direction. Has StangNet offered Randy a 'Ford Parts' forum here?

jasonh_86 · Nov 5, 2005

you've seen my car, i've got Steeda sports. The ride was a little rough because of bad alignment and bad front tires. After i get it re-alligned and get some better tires, i'll let you see how they ride normally. They're nice, imo
