I finally got around to installing a set of 4 brand new in the box OEM arc shocks on my '94 SC. I knew that the original 140k shocks were worn but damn it rides better................:D

Yeah buddy. Wait 'till they settle in...;)
 
Ken how many miles does it take to settle them in? I did mine last year but haven't put more than 1000 miles on the car since then. Does it get any better?
 
If they've laid down for a long time, it can take a couple weeks avg. driving, in my experience. After that, I recall it took a few hundred on my car. Yours should be past that, I think and as good as they'll get. Box'd OEMs might behave different than what's been produced in the last few years, tho.

I also cut half a coil out of the Eibach springs on the front, since moving the battery and fuel cell to the trunk the front was sitting a little higher than previously. I'll see how it sits after driving it around for a little and see if it was enough or needs a little more.
 
Ah...photos?

You might not be able to tell but it did drop a tad in the front, I think I'm going to cut a little more coil out to get the stance/rake that I want.

Man I love that wing on the back, did you build that? Also those black wheels, what are they? The hood looks awesome too.

Thanks...............

No, it was actually manufactured by somebody but I don't know who. The wheels are 18x9 black Saleens, 4.5" Mustang bolt pattern but you can now buy then in the 4.25" T-bird bolt pattern if you don't want to do the hub swap.
