Tha looks SWEET!

How much did you cut out off the springs and hows the ride? 

I have an '88 5.0L bird that I just did the T5 swap and duals and now I want it lowered.  Was it worth it besides the looks factor?

1.5 coils off the front 1 from the rear 


rides close to that of a stock 5L stang . Car doesnt have the weeble feeling on the freeeway anymore. handles a hair better.

I am happy with it :D

So what did you do on the upper portion of the rear??? The coil tapers down to a flat surface for even mounting...
