Lowered on stock shocks n struts.

Nicely done.

ZR, If I can improve handling and ride significantly I will certainly put it on my mod list. Clearly you have lots of experience with the changeover and what's available. What would you recommend for replacement dampers for my situation? I have the Steeda Sport springs. Would the Steeda struts and dampers be better matched for their springs or would Koni / Bilstien be a better option?

I put Koni yellows much improved , when I bought it it was already dropped 1.5" on stock struts & shocks , I hated it lol
If I can just iron out a few other things soon I might actually get in some seat time .

No experience with the Steeda dampers. The Bilsteins are well on the firm side, Koni's (adjustables) are controlled but with a great ride.

Thanks ZR. My ultimate goal is to have my car handle like a Boss 302 or better which will mean upgrading sway bars and other bits as well. I looked into the Koni yellow series adjustable struts and shocks tonight and I really like the idea of being able to tweak the settings. Checked American Muscle and they have them on sale. Is there a comparable local store to purchase these?

If firm and well planted is the goal, you might be disappointed in Koni Sports as the S/A shocks n struts only provide rebound adjustment. At that point I'd lean more towards Bilstein HD.
Couple or three guys here have Koni's, maybe try n hook up for ride in one of their cars.

Thanks everyone. I'll ask around on cruise nights. Something to put on next year's mod list.

^ Nice.

Case in point, my own car. Current set up is double adjustable Koni struts up front with 450lb springs / Maximum Motorsport sport valved Bilsteins out back with 550lb springs. Car has never ever ever ridden and driven so well. Best described as a BMW like, firm n controlled ride, agility n overall feel is nothing like a Mustang is suppose to feel like.
I know, looking at the spring specs, should ride n feel like a dump truck, amazing how things matched up properly can work so well.
