I just got back from the post office and the springs are in! So tomorrow Russell and I are going to install them and there will be one more lowered Mustang in Regina! I'm so pumped!!! I'll definitely post pictures tomorrow!

Alright, for all you who are just dying to see what the former 4x4 looks like here you go! I've got all the pictures up on my CarDomain site!! Here's the quick link: http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/594466/3

And Kevin it's definitely not a mod that you feel in the seat of your pants but the car seems a little snappier!

It took us about 3.5 hours or so! It went really well actually! It might be a bit harder on a older car cause of rust and stuff but overall it went with out a hitch!

I did it myself (my first time ever doing it) and it took me about 4 hours for the fronts, and 30 mins for the rears. If you want any pointers or anything for doing yours, let me know and I can tell you how I did the entire thing

I have a set of springs tha thave been sitting my garage for awhile, but I didnt want to put them on until I got cc/plates and new shocks/struts...i was thnking about it...but I still want to put those parts on at the sametime...so it looks like im going to order them over winter..and get them on in the spring..im just looking for a decent price on the shocks/struts and im set. I haven;t been able to find a set for a decent price, they are on ebay for like 470 canadian and they are located in the states so I want to order them, but they only accept american express and money order....so I might sign up for an american express credit card and order those... I found the cc\plates for a decent price....

With the "C's" you won't need CC plates. Not enough of a drop.

It's VERY close. I had to have my factory cc plates slotted out to come into spec. Some people may not be this lucky

EDIT- I'll include a pic so you can see the drop with the c springs



sorry for hijacking your thread... car is looking tight!

Hey your car looks awesome with the drop...

anywho I want the KYB-AGX shocks/struts...On ebay there is a set in the states for 470...every place in sask wants atleast 800 then with taxes it will be over 900....so I'm not going to drop an extra 400 to buy them in sask, I would much rather order the ones off of ebay, but I need to get an american express credit card...
