does anyone have any opinions to which ones are better than others? does it matter if they are for a 5.0 or a 2.3?

[pk222]

yes it makes a difference if it is a 2.3 or 5.0 as far as I know.
what I was planning on was strange 10 way adjustable struts and competition engineering shocks for regular street driving and occasional track use. thats what was recommended to me for what I wanted but it depends on what your going to be doing.

I asked someone at 50resto.com if it mattered a little while ago and this is what they said:

the spindles are different for the 4cyl, you could bolt on the v8 spindles and use them. But I would recommend using the 4 cyl specific ones.

ok thanks, so its not really the shock and struts, but where and how they mount?

[09hatchback2.3]

also some of them are gunna be diff becuase the 5.0 was alot heavier therefore they had to be stronger

[93stangfutr5.0]

well the 5.0 was maybe 300 pounds heavyer so its like two grown women sitting in the car with you.

i didn't think that mattered with the shocks, i knew it did with springs, but not so much with the shocks and struts
