Default Susp is higher in the front.

So here is the deal, my front end is higher in the rear, and I think it is because of my subwoofer in the back ( I think it ways about 50 lbs). What I was wondering is if you would still notice this if I lowered it. I was thinking about putting H&R super sport springs on it anyways. So what do you guys think, would it still lookjacked up in the front, or would it look about even? I don'tmind if it's a little off. Here are some pics: http://www.exstaticstudios.com/stang/IMG_0008.jpg http://www.exstaticstudios.com/stang/IMG_0009.jpghttp://www.exstaticstudios.com/stang/IMG_0005.jpg Thanks for the help!

I am new to all of this so help me out... I don't know what Isolators are, so I wouldn't have removed them.

Default RE: Susp is higher in the front.

the subwoofers would not offset the engines weight that much to where the front would be higher...

it sounds like the rear spring may have started to sag a little... go get some h&r sports and some nice shocks/struts (tokico's, koni's, or bilsteins) or some budget ones (strange)

you'll like the new stance of your car.

I know it effects the height quite a bit cous my dad lifted it out of the car and the back end went up almost an inch. But yah, Im plannin on gettin some H&R's, like I said I just hope it fixes the problem. Idk maybe they are stiffer than my stock springs. Lol and yah it does look like it's jacked up Beastzilla

LMAO WTF!? I never seen a mustang sit like that. looks like you really have something funky going on with your suspension. Go ahead and do a full suspension swap

I bet the oil left the rear shocks long ago.
