Fixed that for you

Did you just do springs? Or did you do the whole 9 yards?

MamaStang · April 27th, 2009, 09:35 PM

I was super happy with everything...except the timing but whatever...it's done and it's perfect

Went with the Eibach Pro Kit, Steeda Adjustable Upper Control Arm and the Caster/Camber Bolt Set.

Love it!

At this point I don't see a "need" for anything...will just enjoy it for a while and see where it goes from there. I'm sure ya'll will convince me I'm missing the boat on something else....like a roll bar.

lol

You *may* want an adjustable panhard bar. I know the way that they're mounted in the S197, lowering the car will push the axle to one side, though I'm not familiar enough to say how much it will move with X amount of drop. If you notice some weirdness in handling or noises coming from the rear end, I'd suggest looking into one (if you don't want to go all-out for a watt's link, that is

)

I don't like convertibles all that much but that thing looks good. Very nice Mama.

Gosh everybody is lowering their cars, I need to step my game up

Very nice Mama!

MamaStang · April 28th, 2009, 07:38 AM

From what I understand - which granted, is damn little - I could have gone with the panhard bar or the upper control arm for this problem - I went with the upper control arm since that's what my mechanic has had luck and experience with. Ve shall seeeeeee.....it's tucked away for future ref though - if something starts happening, I'll be ordering one.

Thanks 84MGT - There's lots of hot verts on here....I'm just having a love affair with mine right now...

Go get 'em Lefty

Thanks 00Blue! Highly recommend the Eibach prokit...perfect!

84MustangGT · April 28th, 2009, 12:43 PM

Don't get me wrong they look good. I just theard they are noise and can be a hassel sometimes. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Dansby · April 28th, 2009, 03:21 PM

That is just SEXY.

MamaStang · April 28th, 2009, 06:16 PM

Verts are noisy by nature - road noise is louder and with the top up you can get some weird vacuum noise sometimes....

But driving with the top down on a warm day with the sun beating down on you totally makes it worth it.

Besides - why do you think our stereos go up so loud??

JakeM · April 28th, 2009, 06:24 PM

Now your car is ALMOST as sexy as you! Nice!

MamaStang · April 28th, 2009, 10:38 PM

*blush* You wouldn't think I was sexy if I were driving a Toyota though...so I give the credit to the car.

99mustanggtman · April 28th, 2009, 11:33 PM

Nice stance! That would look killer with a light bar.

MamaStang · April 28th, 2009, 11:36 PM

Thanks! That's on my list of possibilities

Mustangshar · April 28th, 2009, 11:44 PM

OMG I just SAW this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy shit...yeah REALLY REALLY looks great! God....I need to DO this. Now I'm going to be broke LOL FR-3 package..gotta DO.

It's bad ass...WOW! Girl, it's a winnah : )

MamaStang · April 28th, 2009, 11:46 PM

LOL Thank sister!!! You've got your hands full with projects now - will you call them tomorrow and tell them to git r done?

LOL...as of today I now have all my parts except my triple chromed Silver Horse Racing fuel door-3 week back order. So that may be a mod we put in at Emays. Hahaha at least someone to watch me do it so I don't screw it up. License plate bracket must be fabricated to fit the GT so my body guy will figure it out.

Car goes for a light detailing..top really needs it but no wax anywhere. Then she goes in Monday....and then I won't see it for a while. I swear I'm putting in the garage for another week after I get r home. I'm freaked about caring for fresh paint!

And in my spare time I'm organizing the meet n greet w/ Erin...LOL

But man...I look at yours and WOW!

And yeah Guys..verts are noisy...thats way I am still debating on Xpipe. But suspension is now NEXT. I see more overtime in my future.

MamaStang · April 29th, 2009, 04:47 AM

WHAT!!?!?! Debating on xpipe!?!!??! Surely you jest!

I did the axle backs and almost immediately turned around and did the rest of it! Obviously it's loud but that's why I like the Bassani's - it's a deeper sound so when it's loud - it just makes those butterflies in my tummy stronger...

Nothing like that "V8 Burble".

She'll be easier to care for after the new paint for a while - no waxing!!!
