The way to increase the ride hieght on the front with traditional coil springs is to replace them with taller springs. OR you could use those wierd things that "twist" in between the coils and raise it that way. I never did like those.

I went to NAPA and bought these springs:
Mustang II, V-6 with A/C and Power Steering. (pick a year model, they all the same). THOSE new springs are WAY to tall of course, but they WILL fit if you cut them!

Remove your old spring and measure it's height, cut the new spring an inch taller than the old. I used an air powered "cut off" tool to cut mine. Hacksaw and torch, no good!

About $80 bucks for the springs and they were in stock at NAPA.
