Project Evolution *** Project Complete **** Wednesday July 9, 2014

If the springs are anything like the springs on 99% of the other Fox cars out there you don't have to worry about them flying out anyway - the bottom coil will be broken off :hick:

I didn't use a spring compressor when I did mine. I bought one, but it didn't fit the car, so I didn't use it. The Mach 1 springs went in easily without a compressor, too (but the TC springs I had in before 'em were a bitch)

Rad support?


Yeah, if you draw a line straight down from the bend on the sway bar on the pass side in the pic. It looks like right in the middle of the big rust spot (sure that helped).
