All right,

The time has come for me to get rid of the stock suspension..

I wanted to know if this combination would work..Please let me know what I should do, other ideas..

For springs, looking at Steeda High Silicon Spring Set part#555-8200
What is the difference between these springs, and the normal Sport ones?

As for shocks,

On the front: Mach 1 Tokico Front Struts
On the back: KYB AGX Ajustable Rear Gas Shocks

Would this work out all right?

I am looking at about $150 for all that..

Or is it better to go with one name on all?

Or Blisteins for a fox..would those work with Steeda springs?


Sorry for the n00b questions, I dont know anything about suspension.

get H&R springs and go with all one brand for shocks i would say tokico 5-way adjustable or bilstein but this one is somewhat expensive....

I have heard that Blisteins are pretty good...would these work for my car with springs too?

I'm in the same boat man, I know nothing about suspension. But I do know that you should go with H&R springs, and get some MM c/c plates too. As for shocks and struts I dunno what I'm going to do either. Sorry to jack the thread but I have a question too. Do you HAVE to buy shocks and struts? Will the stock ones work with aftermarket springs long enough to save up for good shocks and struts? I want to lower the car after I add all of these power mods but the damn bilstein set is about $600-$700.

You can get a full set of Bilsteins for under $500 at stangsuspension.com

http://www.stangsuspension.com/store/comersus_listCategoriesAndProducts.asp?idCategory=45

I would strongly suggest installing everything at once (springs, shocks/struts, c/c plates, etc..)
