they wont work. a gt is a lot heavier than ur car. i think someone said that it could actually raise your car up.

I think it would work. ford racing springs work on v6 or gt.

figure out what part number it is. I just got some sportline springs for my v6, and its supposed to fit GTs as well. The suspension set up should be the same, so I dont see why they wouldnt fit. Might look into getting some shock/stuts too. A price..well, I got mine new for about $200 i think it was. So used it would be less, but not by much.

This is what I got...Sportline

THEY ARE THE SAME PART

I just bought a set of sportlines, they are good for the 79-04 4.6L and the 99-04 3.8L.


1.7" - 2.3" drop depending on car model.
