I know I could use TC springs in the front on mine but I wonder how the Mach 1 rears would hold up to the extra weight of the 87-88s rear end.Cougar 5.0 did a write up concerning Mach1 springs...

I replaced everything in the suspension. Tokico Illumina shocks/struts, Urethane bushings, ball joints, new TC steering rack, TC spindles/brakes, MM C/C plates and the TC springs.The rear has CHE adjustable lower control arms and fixed uppers with the Mach 1 springs. It sat higher than stock in the rear with the stock springs and new arms. With the Mach 1's, the pad on the arms is adjusted around 3/4 of the way up.I didn't measure the height of the car before I did all the suspension mods so I don't know for sure exactly how much it's dropped. I do know that if I hit a big enough bump the 255/40R17's on 9" wide wheelshiznit my front fender lips. Quote Selected

Not sure why it blew the 200A fuse on the new charge cable, though. I think a new one is on the way now. Hopefully be back on the road this weekend.Quote from: TommyT;238923What brand of body kit components are installed on that car? It looks very nice. Great work.TommyI don't know alot about the body kit, I couldn't tell you. It's been on the car since I bought it ten years ago. Quote Selected
Most recent pics Reply #22 – October 15, 2008, 12:12:03 AM Well the alternator came back yesterday. The invoice from PA said that an insulator was compromised. Took the car out after getting it all back together and it was running great. I found a 5.0 Mustang when I was driving around and caught a few lights with him. It was a very clean 87-93 black convertible lowered with black cobra R's and 3" dual exhaust. I don't know anything else about it other than it was a manual trans and it was consistently slower than my car. At the first light when he lit up the tires really bad, I pulled so far ahead I couldn't even guess how many cars I pulled on him. The one good race we had I had a good 3-4 cars on him by 80mph.
