Cutting Springs

[5.0Stang]

I have a 95 gt with the 2 Inch eibach springs. I wanna cut i coil off to really slam the car has any one done this if so does it look good and does the car ride alrite? Thanks guys

 

[sneakypete_ftw!]

it's going to be bouncy and blow your shocks out if you don't have a good set of aftermarket ones. a full coil would be hella low man... it's a mustang not a honda lol.

i got kyb all around i just really like the slammed look so prolly just cut a half coil then?

you have sportlines and you want to go lower?? :shocked:

I have sportlines no insolators, with bilsteins and Konis
i believe my ride is rough. i cant imagine cutting the sportlines.

as stated above get coilovers.

I still have my isolaters on if i remove those how low does it lower it??

haha, this guys teh fucking man.


You could probably get away with like 1/2 a coil up front and 1/4 in the back.


Would lower you that extra bit to really be slammed...but your life will suck lol



Isolators are basically a plastic donut on the top and bottom of the spring.

Removing them up front is usually good for 1/4-1/2 inch

alrite im prolly going to take the isolaters off and see how it looks can the isolaters be put back on if i dont like how it rides?

 

[Javi]

no insolators, the ride is rough as fuck even with nice struts and shocks.
i think im going back to pro-kit no insolators.

why not try reinstalling the isos on your current springs first if you want a li'l more height?
