Default Roush Spring Kit

Last Sunday may daughter gave me a Roush spring kit for fathers day. Very Cool....

Has anyone used the whole Kit both sets of Springs on a V6? The Gt forums are full of guys with rear only installs of the Roush springs....

I was wondering also if there are any gotcha's for the front install.. I have read through Taco bill's write up. All help is appreciated in advance.

I also have the Roush springs and was wondering
who had done the install themselves? Been putting
it off for a while now and its about time.

The GT has a different front spring rate that's why I went with rears only.

The spring kit is pretty simple, I used taco bills write up as well and it was straight forward. As far as loweing the back it pretty much just leveling out the car.

So does that mean if you were to throw some springs in the front it wouldnt sit right? or would it not lower it enough? I want to go with the saleen supsension but i am afraid its not gonig to lower it enough.

@HE
Not sure what GT spring rate springs would do to the front. I wasn't interested in lowering, just leveling that's why I went with Roush rears.

@ damquick1
Fang chin painted to match the rockers
Here's a better shot of the front and the Fang

Sweet... exactly what I need. I can't afford to lower my front end anymore without scraping and the rear sits too high. Where did you guys pick up your Roush rear springs and where is this Taco Bill write-up so I can see how easy it would be to do myself?

Coolest. I also went GT front and rear sways with some Prothane
bushings all around. The Roush rears are on the way from Moss-Mustang
for $124.95.
