FRPP B springs - No isos- Pics? Opinions?

I didn't like them as daily material. Specific rate and relatively stiff. This was on a 86 GT, a little stiff IMO.

 

lol i hope u didnt buy those ones because that would be waste of money for such a little drop you wont even notice.

 

My Son has B springs on his 98gt. Drop was about 1" all around. he also used his stock shocks and struts. Neither he nor his wife has ever complained of the ride being harsh. IIRC he put the spring iso's back on too.

His front tires are 255-45 and mine are 255-40. I'll take care of my wheel gap soon enough.

 

I think SR springs with iso's would be perfect for u. Do it once and right or wait till u can slam it and go h&r ss no iso's

 

Lol I've daily drove stangs lowered 2" plus for years ... It's fine they don't scrape for shit . You might scrape the mid pipe once in a while but the collectors won't touch on the long tubes ... The streets here are garunteed just as bad . Just do a 2" drop you'll still have wheel gap and won't kill your 295's

 

I can drive my car anywhere. I use to daily it slammed. If you don't want to slam it, that's fine, but don't try to make excuses. Those of us who actually have slammed cars don't complain so you shouldn't either. Also, your college does not have 'a million speedbumps' & scraping isn't going to 'bang up your longtubes or exhaust'. Ask me how I know.

 

B springs are perfect. I couldn't imagine being any lower (and I have ISO's). The exhaust scrapes way too much the way it is.....

 

B springs aren't even worth it. You won't even notice the difference, especially with new isos. Sportlines, sve, or SR springs are what you need. My car is what some consider "slammed", and I drove it in myrtle beach with no problems. The roads and speed bumps around there are terrible.What's even better is my daily is about 3 inches lower than my mustang, and I have yet to do this scraping everyone talks about.

 

Trust me when I say this. Your 295's will not even rub in the slightest with sportlines. You'll still have a shit-ton of wheelgap.

 

I did pro kit up front without the isos and netted close to 2", I've got a chin spoiler and i don't have any trouble, I just take driveways and parking lots real slow. Now the rear, my god is there wheel gap and then some!

 

I just did B Springs last week. Overall, I am very happy. Looks "right" like it should have from Ford. It is enough of a drop for the roads and speed bumps I encounter every day. I had intended to do only the springs, but after finding the rears leaking, I replaced the shocks with Monroe Sensa-Tracs for three reasons. First, I did not want a harsh ride as I use the car for cruising with my wife and kids. Second, because I could not get the Koni SRTs and the car was on a lift and in pieces, and third, two different Ford Racing techs recommended them as they said that the B springs were "designed and engineered to have a rate and height difference that would work with factory shocks and struts". I am pleased with the outcome.

Before (excuse the dirty car)


After:

 

You're right, I don't have longtubes. However my ENTIRE exhaust hangs lower than your longtubes so I know what I'm talking about. If you don't want to "ruin your car" by lowering it alot, then that's fine. All I said was to stop making excuses.
