drag springs - need info please
k I'm trying to figure out my suspension setup and I need some help/info. I want to lower it a little but my main goal is to create a good drag suspension setup.
What I know for sure is I want fox body 4cyls in the front. Can anyone link me to a place to buy them? I've searched all the mustang vendors that I know of with no luck.
I'm not sure exactly what to do with the rears. Obviously I want drag springs but I don't know much about them. Can someone tell me what is good and what is not? Links are great help . I'd also really rather NOT buy 4 springs just to use 2 of them.
Anyone have these or know about them?

I'm also gonna go with some full length SFCs and LCAs. I know they sfcs don't really matter as far as brand but what about the LCAs? And is adjustable worth it or not?
I'm gonna get Lakewood Adj S/S and I'm pretty sure they are fine. They are 10 way adjustable so I can make it work with the drag suspension. Also, will I need CC plates with this spring setup?
Thanks for all the help guys.

Go to your local NAPA store and get these.....NAPA #270-3060. I've installed probably a dozen sets with good results. I cut mine 1/2 turn to get the drop I was wanting..here's a pic[8D]

Rears from here. I'm not sure how much the fronts are from NAPA, but dont pay too much. Keep an eye on Ebay. I paid $40 shipped

so these are fox body rear springs that I would use for my rears? Is that what you run?
You think I should just go to some auto parts store and get stock replacements for the fox 4cyl fronts?

Looks awesome. If you want it like this, leave your stock isolators and stuff on. If you want it lower than this, take them off(but it may be sweaky, loud, whatever)

That is a plenty good drop for me. Like I said, I'm most interested in the weight transfer not so much the appearance. No offense to your ebay link ZW but I'm a little hesitant to buy used suspension parts. Esp ones that look like that lol. I'd rather get em new if I can.
Let's hear from guys running 5.0 rears on their 94+ and other rear suggestions. This is helping me a ton guys keep it coming!
