RE: 4x4 no more
So the 4cyl springs probably give a smoother ide than actual lowering springs, but they prob. don't perform as well as lower stiffer ones right? Somethings gotta be given to be gained right??? Looks nice though, just don't fill that gas tank all ways up again otherwise your back will squat more than your front and actualy pull up on the front!

I didn't do the springs for the handling aspect, but rather to launch harder. With the shocks/struts set to "road race" mode (that is to say, all of them at 8/9 instead of 3 and 5) it still handles plenty mean though.

I don't think there will be much difference between before and after the roush spring install, but it was a major difference between the stock suspension and all of the parts that have been installed.
I did the shocks/struts, control arms, front springs, and bullitt brake kit all a couple weekends ago and it made a massive difference. I couldn't tell much/any difference today, but I went only on a VERY short ride (that exhaust was just insanely loud) and it was raining, so not much chance to check anything out.

How much better does it corner and ride now? I'm contemplating lowering my Stang as well.
