The time has finally come, I have the money to finally do my suspension! I have been looking around and have been talked into doing front coilovers. I hear they help ride quality while giving a lower look. Problem though, I want to back to come down with the front as well, so what can I get for the back that will give about an inch drop? Here are all the parts I'm buying next week, bill is going to be huge, but will be worth it! Any suggestions/help/criticism is greatly wanted!

Yeah thats the thing, I don't know which ones to get. I want about an inch drop from them, but I just want rear springs...

your uca link is actually CC plates, and the cc plate link is subs.

Good list, and I hear you on it adding up quick. Suspension is spendy! I should say Good suspension is spendy.
I would suggest you call MM and have them suggest a spring rate for your goals and setup.


you've got it right going with their LCA's and the FFRP uppers.

I think you'll be very happy with the ride/handeling/feel improvement.

I put it this way, spend the big $$$ once and it will last for awhile and do a great job. I know it's not gonna be "slammed" as most stangs are here, but I live in a climate where crappy roads are an EVERYDAY occurance :p.
