Newb with a lowered Stang

[fomoco-bro]

I know this may be a stupid question but here goes. I know little about my new car but I can tell its lowered. The springs are a lite blue color not sure of the brand. How much do you think my car is lowered from stock and what kind of shocks and struts should I look at getting to replace the worn stockers. Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure, but it looks dang nice. My first thought with blue springs would be Steeda, but I may be wrong. I doubt you need new ones though, just new shocks.

BBK Springs are light blue.

 

[fomoco-bro]

Thanks! Yeah the springs seem fine but the old stockers have had it! A friend of mine offered me some Strange adjustable struts for the front. 200 seems a little high though.

 

[chris91]

Honestly for just a daily driven street car you would be fine with some Tokico Blues.

What are your goals with the car? Street? Drag Strip? Handling?

Those Strange struts are more oriented for the street/drag strip crowd.

my h&r's are blue. not real light though. nice sn my man!

Looks good dude, I'd say about an inch maybe more.

 

[fomoco-bro]

My goals are my daily driver. So I'm just looking for a decent ride to work and back and cruise nights.

 

[the5.ohh]

Tokico Blues are pretty good from what I've heard. I'm looking at getting the Koni STR Shocks & Struts, a little more expensive but they're supposed to be really good.

Welcome and nice ride might I ad . I like the hood and wheels . Most people go with crazy hoods and shit , but urs fits wounderful ..

 

[Musturd]

Yea I believe there bbk springs as well tokico blue would be alrigh or ur setup

 

[MustangChris]

light blue makes me guess BBK Gripps.

my light blue BBK Gripps dropped mine about 1.5"s

 

[96TANGERINEGT]

Oh snap , as far as shocks go with tokico . They r great I have the white ones they r adjustable .. work wounders .

 

[fomoco-bro]

Yeah all the mods done on the car have been tasteful in my opinion and serve the car well for looks and performance. I'm in my late 30's so not looking to ghetto my ride out. Wanted a Stang as long as I can remember and got this one in a trade. Any part numbers on the tokico's that I should be aware of? They sound like something I could do.

 

[96TANGERINEGT]

Ah, dam I don't remember the part # I will look and post it later ..

There is never a Stupid question if you dont know the answer to it in our Forum lil Bro...Someone will always have some type of answer for you here. I would say at least an 1 1/2 drop front and 1 1/4 in the Rear...Looks good!! as well they could be H&R Springs Super Sports $250ish or SR Performance $150ish
