Default a little read for the 03 owners

I came across this a few minutes ago, if you're bored it's a decent read. I didn't read all of it, like 80%.

Nice find Bill. It's great to read such a detailed article on our year cars. I wasn't aware that '03 the suspension was slightly different. Interesting!

Very last paragraph of the "Driving Impressions" part:

"For 2003, the Mustang suspension has been retuned. New shock absorbers, new urethane jounce bumpers offer more progressive engagement, and a pinion snubber on top of the rear axle reduces the amount of axle travel to improve ride quality."

My stock 04 GT suspension was crap. I like the MM setup much better.
