Re: Best Front Coil spring for fox body Mustang?
probably moroso trick springs, think there is 3 different part numbers, depending on front end weight

The factory 4 cyl. springs work pretty good. Can't beat the price in U-Pull-It

What is the benifit of running the 4 cylinder spring with the 302 in the car? I feel like with no sway bars on our 89' and the V8 spring in it the car already has too much nose movement.... especially when i grab the brakes a lil too hard at the stripe... I would hate to see how far the nose would drop with a lower spring rate..
Can you elaborate Mark? |
Re: Best Front Coil spring for fox body Mustang?
Mark is right, the 4-cylinder springs will work. They really drop the front-end down quite a bit with the 302, but don't work as well as aftermarket springs in that the nose will come up quickly off the line, then drop back down like a dead fish before you get past the tree. They really just don't have enough pressure to be nice and "springy" loose like you want unless you have a 4-cylinder car like Mark's but they are an option if you're on a tight budget.
For a good set of springs that will come up quickly then settle down to ride height gradually like they should with 90/10 struts, call Laurel Mtn Mustang and get their front drag springs. The springs are powder coated (yellow). Cut 3/4 of a coil off each one and you'll be good-to-go. Been there done that. |
