Can anyone tell me if the GT struts and shocks will fit the V6? I have the GT take-off sway bars installed (WOW) and they made so much of an improvement, I want to add the shocks/struts (and springs?) if they'll work. I would also like to know if this is a change I can make in my driveway and if it will need an alignment.

If anyone knows for sure, please let me know.

Thanks!!

 

i know for sure they wont make your car sit properly, the weight of the GT is different in different areas

 

Are they different? I thought when I looked up the springs the 6 and 8 were the same ...

 

Ya the springs are the same but would that make the shocks/struts similar also?

 

its not worth your money.. if you gonna go with new springs and struts for improved handeling.. yourbetter off get an aftermarket.. like eibach..or steeda

 

Thanks, just hoping for a little improvement for little money.

I will probably get the Saleen strut/shock package. Can those be installed easily enough (home and hand tools) and will I need to get an alignment?

 

Unless anyone has the part numbers for the shocks/struts to say otherwise, I would think the GT has stiffer springs and the shocks/struts for those stiffer springs. Meaning they shocks/strust will be different. Your car won't sit any lower or higher with the GT springs but if they are a higher rated spring you will have a stiffer feel at all four corners.

If anyone has parts numbers for the shocks/struts on the V6 vs. the V8 post 'em. Traditionally the GT has had different components to give it a more aggressive suspension.

 

i can easily find that out for you in asplit second.. but im REAAAAAAAL lazy right now
