Fox Stock Fox Ride Height

[Mustang5L5]

I'm researching for a spring swap over the winter. While the Mach 1 springs ride nice, I could use a slightly lower ride height. I just don't want to go too low, and a lot of comparisons I see compare drop to previous stock height.

I'm curious to how much lower (if any) these springs actually dropped me. Id like to find out go far off stock I actually am

Could someone with a stock spring LX hatch (or any other style) measure from center of center cap of your rim, vertically to the fender lip? Reason I do it this way is because it takes the tire size/inflation pressure out of the equation.

With my Mach 1 springs, I am at

13 3/4" front
14 3/4" rear. (With adjustable LCAs)

Remember, that's Center cap to fender lip. If you want to go total height over the ground, I'm 25 3/4" front. (I only did the front because I had the rear Lcas adjusted for a different size tire and can adjust to match fronts easily )

Hey not sure if it's much help, but the brand new steeda springs I put on my car, may be coming off. I think I'm going to begin a coyote build, so I'll need coilovers. If you are interested, I'd give you a great deal when I do it. Let me know. Thanks

I got roughly 15” both front and rear. These measurements are on a 93 LX convertible. The car is ac and smog pump delete up front so that loss of weight may have effect, although minimal. These are stock springs with isolaters installed. Rear is displayed first followed by front

Perfect. My car has ac and smog, so it's prob a tad lower relatively speaking.

So looks like the Mach springs do drop about 1" give or take.

Let me know. Not looking to do this right now, but perhaps spring. Torn between steeds sports and H&R sports

Mike- get a good set of some higher mile stock springs,,, they will give you somewhat of a drop but still have a comfy ride.

Just for grins. My car does not have stock springs,tires or weights.
Ground to lip 25.75'' front 26 1/8'' rear.

Y3ah I'm in no rush. My daughter will be born any day, so my car will sit. I decided to wait until things settle with her before I build my garage, so I'm renovating my fathers to accommodate my car. Once I do that, I'm tearing it down, I probably have 500 miles on them only smh. I'll take care of you. They are steeda sports
