Monroe is garbage, KYB has bad jounce tendencies, Koni's are expensive....but good enough for Shelby!

kyb's would fit your application jessie. and he meant the shock mounts in the floor, not your differntial, you cant replace those without a good bit of work..

simple, air shocks are to take weight off of the rear springs, shocks on a Mustang mount to thin sheet metal, they WILL go through the floor of the trunk
