Lowering Springs?
Has anybody used the Ford Racing lowering springs that drop the front .87 and the rear .50 inch....Is it worth it? I am afraid of clearance issues if i go more... 17x8 rims with spacers might take out the front fender... any info or pics would be great!

I used the C springs. Those numbers are about right. 7/8" front & 3/4" rear.

Zeekstr~ They offer the same rate in drop, but you can either get them in a linear or progressive setting..
I got the springs installed also installed KYB AGX shocks, I am having a tough time finding shorter sway bar links...Anybody have suggestions?
