Hayyy guys !
Haven't been on here in like a year. Now that spring's coming i'm FINALLY doing suspension stuff by myself. Just looking for quick opinions before I buy from AM, I have cash in hand finally wohoo.

Eibach pro kit or h&r
Front/Rear polyurethane spring isolators
J&M caster camber plates (These are necessary right? otherwise im gonna save for wheels lol or maybe i should go cheaper route and buy from the shops...)
Tokico HP series shocks/struts (front and back)

Anything you want to stay away from?

Quick opinions ! i'm buying today

thanks fellas

What, no one has any love for the Classics? :O

I would have thought a few of your would have liked the video.

btw, she passed on the 97' Trans Am trade offer, just too much needs to be done to make it cali legal. Almost $1500 to swap back over to stock and he was referring to the motor having low miles (No proof of course) and the body has almost 160,000 miles.

Glad to hear. I like the Trans but that '68 is going to be even more beautiful after the paint. I may have missed this along the way, but what color are you guys going to go with?

Acapulo Blue is the original color and she is going to paint it that again.
Her first choice was Black with blue flames but she will save that for another Mustang down the road.


I picked up a near new Holley 4160 750cfm carb today for $100.
Its the 80508S that sells on Summits site for $310.

Yeah, I know its too much carb for the motor but at $100 bucks and it came with a fuel rail with a fuel pressure guage on it, I couldnt pass it up.

The guy had it on his Fox body with a fairly similar setup to how Aprils is setup and wrecked his car a couple weeks later.

Here is a pic of what it looks like.
