Talking lowering springs are installed!!!!

Well, me and a buddy of mine tackled the job of putting the SR springs and the SR adj panhard bar on my car and wow it took a little bit of time. Putting the springs on on the front wasnt any fun. Neither of us have ever put springs on the S197 model before. I had no idea the strut mount was a two peice design (why in the world is that) with ball bearings (which did spill out EVERYWHERE!). Other then that little misshap that's the only issues we had....the rear was simple and the panhard bar was pretty straight forward as well. (man was my rearend pushed off to the side with those springs!) It only took about 45 mins or so to install the PHB and adjust it.

I would deff suggest this mod! The car rides really well lowered its a little stiffer and the rear feels alot more planted. And from just driving the car it doesnt feel like it needs a alignment....


I stoped by a local ford dealer for a comparion shot.....This is about a hour after install and is a comparison of the stock springs (car in red) VS the new SR's (remember the springs havent settled!)



VS.

Looks good! Mustangs do look much more aggressive lowered. Do you have new wheels on your mod list?

It won't feel like you need an alignment but your caster/camber is off. Wearing the inside if your tires incredibly fast!

SR springs are a great deal. Car looks better for sure.
