Default The easy half of the suspension is done

Got bored this morning, and went ahead and installed my rear springs. We're doing the fronts at a friend's house this afternoon, since I have a bad back, and will need the help on the fronts. He's also got a compressor to do the shock and strut upper bolts. Here's some pics to show you guys the drop on the Vogtland springs compared to the front factory springs.

Your car looks pretty sick man with the deep dish wheels in the back and the new lowered stance. Thats a nice drop, also considering the Bullitt is already lowered a little bit stock.

Yeah, nice ride man, I'm not a fan of the bullitt wheels, but they look real nice on yours. I'm installing H&R SS sorings and tokicos on mine next weekend.

OK, got it all finished up. I'll get it aligned tomorrow, and be ready to go. I want to wait to see if the front settles a little in the next couple weeks, but if it doesn't, I'll put a spacer in each side on the back, because it sits perfectly level right now, and I want a little rake, so the back may get raised 1/2" or so, but we'll see in the coming weeks. Next week, the 9" front wheels and 275/40's will be on the front also, and I'll be ready to go.

I kind of need to have Bullitt wheels, since it's a Bullitt.........lol

But honestly, a buddy of mine has black chrome FR500's, and they're probably my favorite wheels I've ever seen on a Mustang.
