Default Quick Shock and Strut question

I know that fox body shocks and struts are supposed to be better and will work on the 94-04 body style mustangs. Im curious as to if these are worth me getting rather than the correct year replacements.

rear, just get the 94+ ones.

fronts are not' better'- most people go with them on very lowered cars(noramlly H&Rs, 2" or greater) due the the unit being shorter, and better fit for being so lowered.

thanks guys. Ive wabted to do coil overs for some time but got tired of being beat to death when I hit a bump and this is the reasoning behind me thinking of getting the tokico blues. I was talked into waiting a little longer and getting it done the way I want. still thanks.

The blues won't change that. I thought they would help too, not soo much. Maybe they improve handling on a stock springs while keeping a stock ride, but idk. Brent, if I could do it again, I would save up for some bilsteins or adjustables for a few hundred more. Just something for you to consider.
