Default My stang doesn't have shocks/struts

Is that normal? Maybe its the early 99's? Well would I be able to install them? Or is the car not capable of having em.

what do you mean it doesnt have them, as if all your suspension is coil springs and nothing else? i don't see how thats even possible with mustang suspensions, the front spindle is located and held in place by the strut

No worries man, we all have dumb moments. When I was doing my brakes I was turning some brake line bolt on the caliper instead of the bleeder screw and couldn't figure our why my brake pedal was still mushy and not working. Called my buddy over showed him what I was doing. he laughed at my 10 seconds later fixed lol.

I sense this was a blonde moment, brush it off, we all make mistakes(the title made me laugh, that's always a plus in my book ).

Yeah when I read the title I thought you got lucky and bought a car with coilover or something without knowing it.

I had a brain fart when I was putting in my LSD. Axles wouldnt push in all the way to remove the c clip, I checked everything, was like how in the **** is this supposed to work. Left my car for a couple minutes, came back and noticed the ABS sensor. Pushed the sensor out and felt like a complete retard. I even had my boss and his wife trying to figure it out.

Then I put everything back together, had the diff cover on and oil in the diff. Then looked in the rear end rebuild kit and noticed the pin. Another "I am so ****ing retarded" moment.
