Question What would you do if it was your 2001 Mustang GT?

I have 69,000 miles
I want 1.5" lowering springs for Front and Rear.

Should i get new springs without the shocks or wait and get them at the came time. ( cant afford to get shocks now )

How hard is installing shocks? i have installed D2 coilovers on my friends stang but not shocks before.

NEED UR HELP

It will work but the performance & lifespan of your stock shocks will be reduced. I would wait if you can. It's not hard to do, just takes some time. I would say most men who own tool boxes should be capable. If you reuse the stock shocks you will need a coil spring compressor tool. You will be doing all the same work over again once you get shocks. I was too excited and didnt waited on my other cars(88mustang\91integra). I installed springs, blew out the shocks, installed new shocks. Hey I think I hear them calling you "put us in, put us in" Question is can you resist?
