I am pretty sure I have a stock mustang II front end with stock upper and lower control arms. The car came with really old unidentifiable shocks that didn't uses a pressed bearing at the bottom. Where the shock mounts on the lower control arm, it uses a bolt covered by a tubular shim that fits snug in the eyelet hole of the shock. I think the difference between us might be the upper tower on my car, where the shock mounts, is another 4 inches above where the top of the spring is perched out. It looks very similar to what C5GTO has in his pic above. I am not sure if that is a design that was consistent with all of the CR's made. Your setup definitely wouldn't work on my car. With the suspension unloaded My shock length is 14 inches and yours maxes out at 11.
