Lowering it.

[4v Shane]

Opinions on Springs and the kits that are offered for my 4x4 of a 97 Cobra.

Also are caster/camber plates a necessity when accomplishing this task?

Thanks

[Cookie Monster]

Pour Gasoline over the car, and set it on fire...

[Violent J]

H&R springs and Maximum Motorsports CC plates FTW. :rockwoot:

[orangejuiced86]

Did you figure out your trans issue? I see your super duper thread got deleted....

[86 jewel]

[Quick86]

While you're at it... Get the big brake kit done ;)

[Sleeper]

I see eibach advertise a lot. lol!

[jtcstrat]

Any lowering kit. just do it.

I like coilovers/upr/eibach and strange. But im partial. :)

No need to really spend $2,500 on a brake system when the car really is not all that fast or nice for that matter

[kovacs32]

i heard skyjacker makes a nice kit for you

[dave89iroc]

make sure you watch the pinion angle on the front axle, and you may need to mess with your front dricveshaft

Everyone is going to be shocked when the son of a bitch is finally low

[Crazzy_Al]

Eibach springs are well known, and a reason is good results....Depending on how intense you want to go...Coil overs, I've personally never been in a street car with, but I've heard not so good results as travel ends up being too little for the MI roads...
Keep us posted though, after you've spent the ton, save someone else a few $$$ with your results...

I had coilovers on my Cobra

[jtcstrat]

I have front UPR coilovers/eibach springs/strange 5 way adjustable struts up front

In the rear i have eibach springs, it rides nice IMO

[Cookie Monster]

do the Hockey puck body lift mod.... it's cheap and effective...

[Detroit Style Dragger]

Shane.....with the level of gayness u bring to the table you need to bag that turd. or throw some hydros on itI take offense to that!!!:pow:

Coil overs on all four corners.

[4v Shane]

[4v Shane]

Oh sweet jesus

Lowersprings are alot easier on the pocket book :lol:

[85notch]

If it is a show car then get lowering springs, if you are going to race the car a lot of people use stock four cylinder springs and cut them to lower the stance where they want it.

[STOCK GT]

Remember those Eibach Springs I was telling You about?
I took them off the car yesterday, i put a coilover kit on the Front, and drag rear springs....

I will be putting them up Fro Sale soon, just not to you!:thefinger

Sux for you, cuz it seems I have every part you could ever need for your car!:shake:

[orangejuiced86]

Stock GT is getting a +1.


best post ever on mm, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH

[lscfn10]

Lol at all the replies.

Coilovers, do it.

I also take offense to the bag comment, but mine came stock with them.

Hey now... My 95 has tan interior :pow:

Anyways back on track here me and my friend just did the suspension on my 95. Very straight forward and easy to do IMO and I have very limited mechanical experience.

What I went with:
Steeda CC plates
Eibach Sportline Lowering Springs
Energy Suspension isolaters on all 4 corners
KYB AGX adjustable shocks/struts

Its sitting a LOT better now, but should still settle down a little further w/ some additional seat time. Good luck man :thumbsup:

He is choosing to take this time off. Look at his account. He's not currently banned.

I'll take your word for it. I don't know how to look at his account or to see if he has been banned. So why does everyone seem to dislike him so much anyways? Im a fairly new member so I really don't have much of an idea.

Ummm, all you have to do is look at his post, and view the title under his user name. If he was banned, it would say BANNED under his name. Either scroll up, or click here --> http://motownmuscle.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1264791&postcount=45

Hmmm... I guess I just don't know all the small details. Thanks Al.

So as for my second question?

[Crazzy_Al]

I can't speak for others.

Alright I'll take that as a polite "no comment"
