Anybody Tried The Ford B Springs?


I have 2002 gt and was thinking about going with the B springs or the C springs. What do you guys suggest? I just want a little lower stance without sinking alot of money in the set up. This car is my wife's daily driver and my weekend toy, but she has got her heart set on a mach 1 in a couple of years. I have heard that the B springs are very similiar to the eibachs what about that? Any suggestions or pic would be great!

FRPP C springs are better than the B and worth the extra 10-20 dollars. i have C springs and the height is perfect to carefully clear speedbumps with long tube headers. any lower, and you would be in trouble

I noticed you had C springs and I really like that stance. Did it affect your ride very much? Would it be slightly lower with a V-8?

Do you have any suggestions on the best place to buy the springs? The cheapest I have found them is 123.00 at stangsuspension.com but I don't know about shipping yet. The were actually cheaper than the FRPP B springs.

I got some dropzone springs from AutoSportz.com for $99.99 + shipping. They lowered my car 2" all around. It is low and I do have a hard time getting over speed bumps no matter how hard I try I hit most of the time. Small price to pay because my car looks badass.
