Just to confirm, I attempted to order the "T" model from Levittown Ford, they also sent me an e-mail saying the part number has been changed to "X" after I placed the order for the T, and informed me that there is a national back order on the R springs until sometime in Feb. I cancelled to order and ended up buying a "T" from a vendor that still had them in stock. Hopefully I can throw the on next week. SO if anyone's planning on doing this in the future the part number will be FR3Z-5560-X

Thank's. That's where I bought them from. They had 3 left after I bought mine, so someone else must have bought a set. It seems like they're popular, but I know a lot of GT350 guys replace their stock spring with these. Can't wait to see how they handle along with the Koni's and BMR cradle lockout.

I have the full 350R set coming from Levittown...just waiting on shipping!

The "X" is the models I have arriving as well.

Has anyone ever noticed that the "C" and "X" are adjacent on a qwerty keyboard? Me neither.

My invoice part number was a typo. We checked the Ford parts receipt, and sure enough I got 2 FR3Z-5560-X GT350r left rear springs. Thank goodness for that! So if anyone needed further support for the 'X' part number, this is it. These rear springs were ordered for a specific GT350r serial number, not from a parts list or suspension blow-up.

The guys at Dasilva Racing are fantastic, and ordered my springs with the best possible method considering the various part numbers. They were very apologetic for the error, and we all had a good laugh about 'fat finger' mistakes.

Good to know. I figured as much since 2 left springs for any other model other than a GT350 would not fit. Also the C code springs sell for $29 vs. $100, so your bill would have been a lot less. I should have mine this week and installed by the end of the week (I hope). Thinking about grabbing a GT350 steering wheel while I'm at it. These mods will probably be as close to a GT350 as I'll ever get. haha Where did you set the Koni's? My buddy said he always installs them on cars at 50% initially then adjust it up or down from there.

Mine are at minimum for now. This is my 3rd set of yellows, and I think they break in after a while. I generally stay at min on the road, although this is a pretty big spring rate increase so we'll see.

I have the GT350 steering wheel, it's awesome but not cheap!
