Default 4cyl fox spring guys... pics, info, etc... needed

so yea i know the general idea.... 4cyl springs out of a fox up front, and you cut the rear stockers...

ive been thinking about doing it eventually, but the way things work out, im doing it tomorrow, i went and pulled the springs out of my foxbody, and am going to put them in the 02

so, how much are you guys cutting out of the rear stock springs to even it out? ofcourse, ill try a little at a time, but a good ballpark would be nice to know where everyone else is at.

how much lower does the car actually end up sitting?

and ofcourse, whos got some pics?

funny you should ask... I have just about every angle + different rims & tires, plus I'm MG also.

all pics are w/o the front swaybar (it sits a little lower w/o the swaybar)




this pic is with a (big) passenger up front




















how's that?
