anyone used one of these? i heard a lot about them on MW and corral. my GT sits a little lower on the driver side rear and i heard this is common. a company (i forget who and where) makes 3 different size spacers depending on your sag. $30 each.
i was going to order one when i get home....but thought id ask if anyone else has dealt with this.
I was just noticing mine looks the same way. Guess it's just "Ready to Launch!" and transfer the weight to the right rear. :D
yea its something to do with the body and weight or something.....once i fond the link ill post it. the spacer changes nothing but ride height.
found it. Global West
http://www.globalwest.net/mustang%20...erch%20spacersRear spring perch spacers for leveling your cars ride height.
You may have noticed some Mustangs from 1979-93 have a
lower ride height on the divers side rear. Not to worry, we have
a simple fix. We use a special rear coil spring spacer machined out of
billet. This will not change anything but the ride height. The
spring spacer goes under the coil spring and indexes on the control
arm. The spacer will also re-index the coil spring.
Spacers will also fit 1994-05 models.
We make 3 different height spacers.
Part# 1100 = 5/8 inch change
Part# 1101 = 3/4 inch change
Part# 1102 = 7/8 inch change
(Only one spacer needed per car) Price 28.59 ea.
You may want to put you new springs on 1st before ordering anything. The rear's are easy enough to get back out if you have to add one.
My car sat even when I had the lowering springs on it.

Well, you would 1st have to see how much of a spacer you would need before you ordered it anyways.hmmmm...yea i know the rears are easiest....i just figured in doing it right the first time.
thought i posted that here...i have roughly 1/2" difference.
But that's with the "Stock" springs. You have NO IDEA what the difference, if any with the new springs will be!
Probably missing the isolators or they are dry rotted and broke. You can buy a polyurethance isolator kit from summit cheap, will be enought to do both springs.
My collection:
01 cobra in pieces
02 dodge cummins
i had planned on leaving the isolators out...and wrapping top/bottom of springs with electrical tape...gets a little lower ride and still no noise since the tape is there.
did it to a couple of my cars before.

So it's not just Ed,,,, EVERYONE seems to rip on Jared!
no actually i wasnt joking...i had done it to several stangs...my white 95 had the stance i loved..... but this fox is brutal to drive already....damn near piss blood after driving to work it beats me up so bad.
but i called lou and added some isolators to my order.
well the rest of my parts came in from Lou....so ill get everything together and leave tomorrow to install it.
yes i ordered some isolators....although the front top ones look pretty damn huge.....if i dont like the ride ill pull them and take the iso's out.
Don't use Electrical tape, do it RIGHT and use Ductape!
You are from West By God Virginia after all!
GAWD DAYUM RIGHT!!!!
but fyi it is called kentucky chrome here in WV.
I think you're still living in denial. Everyone knows it's called West Virginia Chrome!
