If you aren't hitting the strip every week, I wouldn't bother with adjustables. I never had 'em. As for strut's, I just used regular Tokico's, meant for the 94-up car's with my H&R SS springs, they never bottomed on the stops or anything. BTW, my old car was a 97, but same thing.

three words....welded torque boxes
if you are putting in the motor + goodies i remember you talking about, you are gonna want them if you plan on racing..

agree with SRT
welded torque boxes are a byproduct of aftermarket UCA's with bushings that are too tight and transfer force into the floor pan/torque box area. Correctly engineered suspension parts will NOT need any reinforcement to the torque box area.
It's a long explanation that I've posted many times. If your just strait line racing or driving "normally" it's not necessary.
anyway, I don't want to go on. Suspension isn't a short and simple write up. it's complexly relative.

I would venture to say Handz disahrees :hammer:
My upper and lower DA's were Granettelli, which I put on before I read all the internet negative about them. They worked fine for me, but I only go to the track like maybe twice a year.

yeah this car will be my track monster so with the future cubes i want a solid rear end...the upper i have for free :behind: my friend got them for his car and after 10 passes put a 9" in and dont need them.. so i guess its time to do my suspension lol ...the motor is coming out too...not time for the new engine we are just stripping all the non-sense and replacing the leaking oil pan gasket...the current motors running fine right now but i dont know how long its going to live on the bottle...we decided to paint the car early spring so its together for next year

I have their subframes at home, wating for one new car or another to fall onto... They look beefy for sure.
i have heard the same thing travis.
for our cars, i heard that instead of buying the struts for a 94 up mustang, to buy the same kind you want, except for the fox body cars..
is this true? i read a pretty lengthy article on a website but dont remember where i found it. i will need suspension sometime in the near future so just wondering what the deal with this is..
(not trying to jack your thread travis, i just have the same question you do..) O0
