Hey Don and DV! I've got a problem. I've got the Mustang II front end and when coming home from a ride. I heard a nose from the front end. After getting home I found out that I lost the screw/washer and rubber top of the shock on the passengers side. I went back to were it happened and found all the parts...that was great. But I noticed after that the passengers front spring is broken...must be the bad roads here. Can you help me out!!
Thanks.
Snake/Gerry.
P.S. I will one day change out the front and rear suspention..but until then I need either one spring to fix the problem or two, to make them even and the same.
Thanks Guy's.

Snake,
You gotta tell us what spring you're running. CR's originals, coil overs, standard upgraded springs?

DV...

Hey DV! I'm running the Mustang II 1978 coil springs...cut as the manual said, 1 1/2 coil removed...I found the front end to be a little rough...front end likes to bounce/travel when hitting consecutive bumps...I guess that's what you call bump steer/travel. I'm not using the front or rear sway bars.
Thanks.
Snake/Gerry.

Hey Snake,
followin up for DV...
Good plan to replace both springs. Better safe than OH $#1T!We can supply you Blue Coils (Sus. spring specialist inc.) that don't need to be cut for $55US ea. + the int. shipping. Sounds like your shocks are being punished too so decide whether to invest now or hold out for the coilover upgrade.

Feel free to give us a call. We'll set you up with the right spec.
