Mustangs of Illinois

Well I changed the title to this as I have lowered the Mustang.
Put 1" lowering blocks in the rear and cut 1-5/8" coil off bottom of front springs. I had to modify my center spring tool to work in reverse, as there is no center hole for the rod to go down thru when the spring compresses. So I made it so the rod comes up thru the center access hole to do it.
Had to knock the center lips of the fender wells in, but still need to do it a little more. It looks 100% better than it did !

don't try to do blocks in the rear. Purchase 4.5 leaf mid eye rear springs and then do the UCA drop on the front. That should get you there.
It will lower the rear about 3/4 of an inch and the front just shy of an inch. If you want the front lower, you will need to replace or cut the springs.
it is fairly inexpensive and can all be done in a day.

you cant go much lower because of the 19 inch wheels. lower and you will end up rubbing the tires.

I answered in your other post...

Looks like I will be cutting off 5/8 of a front coil.
Then blocks in the back for now...

Managed to lower the front 1-1/4" and the rear 1"... I think the front might come down another 1/4" after the new springs get broke in a little more. Still need to roll the inside lips in a little farther...
