Default worth swapping?

Hey guys a buddy of mine just gave me some eibach sportlines and tokico shocks/struts off of his gt that he wrecked. Would the sportlines be an improvement over my current c-springs? And are the tokico shocks/struts any good or should I just save for strange adjustables like i was planning to?

thanks.

That would be a hot setup. Pretty low but it would look sweet. If not, you can get some good money for them. Im sure your friend made sure that that model tokico was made for lowered stangs.

Do you have a link with pics of your mach 1 conversion?

If you already have C springs and lowered, why go through the hassle of swapping for eibach. Leave your c springs on and keep saving for your strange adjustables. Sell the eibachs and tokico's and put that cash toward the adjustables

sounds good, thanks for the advice...im going to have the car apart anyway so it wouldnt be a big deal swapping it myself but you raise a valid point about selling it for the cash to buy other stuff.

And no I do not have any pics of my car with the conversion done....yet. I go home in several weeks and I plan to clean it up nice for a mini photoshoot.

That setup sucks....Send it to me and I'll dispose of it, and pay for you to ship it..
