Lowered pics
Some pics, don't have any before shots and no height measurement.shaved down the rubber and cut the clamps to fit properly,cut off the rubber at the ends off spring.The rear used hardened threaded rod(free) cut to 13",until I get proper grade bolts.
It also got new poly bushings all over.The ride is not really smoother but feels ALOT more secure over bumps,does not have the jittery feeling like it wants to skip off the road.Also put on drilled rotors with hawk pads all around and SS brake lines F/R and fresh fluid,so far they are much better and will actually activate the abs,before they were like standard drum brakes kinda scary when I actually had to try and stop quickly.And a pic of the exhaust my buddy fabricated with stock off the shelf pre bent tubing for my car a few years ago.

My Vette destroys the Stang bottom end and top end by a long shot. The Stang also has 3:73 gears, MSD ign., underdrive pulleys, cold air intake, headers/exhaust, shortshift, all the minor bolt-ons. Still no match. Vette is pretty much stock just computer tuned and has hooker headers and exhaust. Both awesome and fun cars though!
