looks sweet, I remember when my stang used to look that high when it was stock I bet the ride feels ten times better with the springs, struts, and shocks installed

Looks nice

Looks great, I'd say thats about the perfect stance for a daily driver.

I hate to say this but those shocks and struts are total crap.

When I bought this car I got a stack of receipts from the previous owner. He had replaced the shocks and struts with KYBs about 5 months before I bought it. Now I don't know how many miles he put on in those 5 months but I only put about 1,000 miles on it after I got it before I pulled them out and put Bilsteins on.

I could compress the struts by hand and they wouldn't even extend back themselves. The shocks were slightly better but still EASILY compressed by hand. The car sounded like it was going to fall apart over every bump in the road.

After the Bilsteins, it's a totally different car. KYBs are junk. I know Bilsteins are expensive but they are so worth it. I've put them on my last 2 stangs and even installed a set for a buddy on his 2000 GT with just 50,000 miles on it. He couldn't believe the difference either. Just my 2 cents...
