I'm getting the rest of the parts together for my Solid rear swap and this has been the hardest part of the process... Figuring out which springs to run. I have the H&R Race springs on the car now and love the stance.

Did you guys just buy a set of 99-04 GT springs and install them?

I know I only need the rears but figure buying the entire set and switching all 4 will allow me to sell the Race springs easier. :shrug:

Please post pics of your SRA cobras and your setup. :beer:

Thanks
Ryan

my car has Bullit springs in the rear,,but still has the cobra front springs. It sits pretty level,,but I would like to drop the front now. I bought the car already with the solid axle in it,,so thats what the previous owner had on the car.

Cobra spings front, GT springs rear, both cut to lower the car. The rear is very "squishy," I'll be changing the springs (And shocks) in the rear as soon as possible.

I am running stock cobra front springs with one iso, In the back I have stock GT springs with no isos and a set of lakewood 50/50 drag shocks. My rear tire is a 27x11.50x15.

I'm thinking of trying out either the Ford Racing C springs or BBK springs,not sure what they are called. American Muscle has them on their website,,they are blue in color.. I dont want the car too stiff and I dont want it slammed,,,just alittle lower than stock. So I'm thinking more towards the BBK springs for now..but like I said considering the ford racing "c" springs???? This car is gonna see more time on the street and some drag race use,,but will probably never see a road coarse so thats why I wanna stay away from a really stiff spring..I still want it to be able to hook somewhat at the drag strip
