I am getting a rear 27.5" street to fender height. I'm measuring from the bottom center of the wheel straight up to the fender. Is that about what everyone is seeing?

This is a Performance Package GT btw.

Does anyone have a pic of the performance springs on a base GT?

Kelly can I just stop in the shop some day and buy springs directly from you or do I need to order them through the website?

Kelly, just wondering if you got my PM ?

I did my springs over the weekend. Im super happy with the outcome and the ride is just like stock PP suspension which is what I was going for. Thanks to Kelly for answering all my questions and helping me make the right decision. Here are some quick pics I took.

Are these the performance springs?

Yes, they are the only springs available right now.

Here are some pics of my car. I did the springs and IRS components and wheel spacers all about a month ago. I have to say the Springs are probably my second favorite mod only to the MGW shifter. They definitely keep the car from diving and squating under hard acceleration and braking. They even ride really well with the factory base dampners in my opinion, I do believe though on rough roads the rear shocks could use a little more rebound control.

I do want to upgrade to viking rear shocks but I am waiting for them to get their issues worked out.

Looks great man thank you for the pics. So you didn't need to change the stock dampers right just cut them? Did you need to get alignment done after? What other IRS components do you have? I only have Vertical Links but am looking to do the CB005 with the springs.

I don't feel the base rear shock are horrible just could be better on rough roads and over bumps. Thanks for the compliments.

Thanks. I just took the factory bump stops off and cut them like the directions say to and re-installed them. I ended up driving the car around 75-100 miles without and alignment looking for a local shop that could get my mustang on their alignment rack. I finally found one that had a new Hunter machine recessed into the ground with a straight roll onto the rack. The car did handle kind of funky before the alignment and was night and day difference after! All they Adjusted was the toe settings and left the rear camber at -2.0 degs, I am not particularly happy with that much rear camber but it does handle good in the turns especially with the stock 235's. I have since bought some camber bolts for the front and plan to get it re-aligned eventually to hopefully correct the camber settings for closer to the PP specs.

All the parts I installed are in my signature. I wanted to do them all at once so I would only have to get it aligned once. It did take me most of the weekend by myself in the driveway on jack stands to do the install. I ordered the Jacking rails at the same time but it ended up that BMR had just sold out and it took another couple weeks to get them. They are way more substantial than using the pinch rails and are visible from the side, I am glad I got the black ones. The red ones I don't think would look right on a yellow car.

Mine went on this week! Caught a small break in the rain yesterday and got some quick pictures. I plan on doing a full detail as soon as we stop getting rain and will post more up! I have not yet had an alignment but am scheduled for next Friday to have it done.
