Chad Stuetzel I'd go ahead and do the GT500 mounts just to be safe. The stock mounts tend to fall apart when the strut assembly is taken apart and there's really no good way to put them back together.
lol your joke about the mustang going to the crowds made me Crack up! Also hearing all the things that you want to do yo the mustang gets me excited because it's going to look do good!
Depends what you mean by tinting the tail lights. I don't think dark tinted tail lights would look very good, but some lightly tinted or smoked tail lights would look great!
Normally, yes. Thankfully, the shop I took mine to for the alignment knew of the issue and was able to grind out where the lower end of the strut meets the remainder of the suspension assembly, saving me about $200.
Ok. got some people saying yes, i'll need them and some saying no I won't. I called Late Model Resterations where I got the springs and they said I wouldn't need them. I'm confused as hell! I doubt if the shop near me will have the know how about the grinding... guess I really won't know till I put the springs on... and see how she sits. But thanks for the response... your car is bad ass btw.
Do you have an S197 Mustang? If so, you'll have waaaaay too much negative camber on the front wheels after you lower it, so there will have to be some way to adjust the camber on the car, wither with CC plates or with the grinding. But thanks man! Much appreciated.
Beautiful car ya got there!... I am about to do K springs on my 2011 with the Koni orange street struts/shocks... hopefully i dont have trouble with the panhard bar.
Your car looks a lot better man. Question. For your tail lights, do you think putting LED's in the brake and reverse housings would give the car a more premium or upscale look so to speak?
I have considered it, but I figured since the front end already has so many stone chips, I may as well wait until it's not my daily driver. Or possibly wrap the car a different color all together.
Stock struts for now. I'll upgrade when these blow out. The rear springs were much easier to install than the fronts, but I did it all in the garage fairly easily.
