Installed cut springs

tango7 · October 28th, 2009, 09:27 PM

I cut another 1/2 coil off my springs and installed them this evening.. It got dark and could not get pictures of the whole car but here is the front.
This was with the springs that was orginally cut.

Here are the ones I installed this evening. Total cut was about 1 1/4.. The ride did not change I am happy.

I cut my cobra's fronts at 3/4 of a coil....Didn't do much. I think I'm going to try 1 coil and see what happens

tango7 · October 28th, 2009, 10:18 PM

I cut 1 1/4 and used the factory isolators

Did you remove iso's also? Your mach was slammed and I don't think you could get that with just a 1.5 coil

Of course no isos. But I am pretty sure it was only 1.5, it might have been 1 3/4.

looks good tango! did you do the back too? pics of the whole car?

tango7 · October 29th, 2009, 11:31 PM

I will try and get a few of the whole car this weekend. I did not cut anymore on the rear as the gap was more on the front.. I may in a few months drop the rear for now I think I am done until I can get a supercharger.

CobraPhoenix · October 31st, 2009, 01:12 PM

looks pretty good man

tango7 · November 1st, 2009, 12:25 PM

I have not got to pull the car out of the garage because of rain.. Here are the only pictures I have since the springs were installed. I also installed redline hood struts last night when I ran out of candy for the trick or treaters. lol
