Notchbacks have issues here out back. All the lowering kits were aimed at hatches and gts and the lighter ass in the coupe made them too stiff. We'd routinely mix Eibach or BBK with four banger strings in the back.
Looks great! Just in the middle of installing a set of BMR lowering springs in mine, I had looked at cutting but was worried about the position of those pig tails so I chickened out, lol.

Get your self some MM adjustable lower control arms and you can get that rear end at whatever height you want when you want it. They are super easy to adjust.
Thank you so much for the amazing videos Gary. Your the best in the business. In your opinion... how low can you go, before needing caster/camber plates? Thank you for keeping the Fox alive.
Thank you for the kind words my friend! Honestly, I do not have them on any of my cars. That said, I do have a set for the convertible I will be installing soon
Thinking about using new manufacture 4 cylinder springs on a 90 hatch. Or invest in good after market springs? Already have beefed up panhard bar, new bushings, tubular control arms, and subframes.
Hello from Massachusetts 👋. Love your content and passion for these cars. A quick and unrelated question for you and the rest of the audience...... which foxes have more leg room? Never had a fox, but want one bad. Sat in a friends the other day. 89' which of course has the tilt wheel. I'm 6'3" and the wheel was touching my legs the whole time. Even raised all the way, with the seat all the way back. Would a 90-93 give me more room ? Perhaps a new video topic for you brother? Thanks in advance.
Thanks buddy! There are seat track extenders you can buy. A good fell to ask this question to is @gearhead704 He is a REALLY tall fella and he has installed these on his Vert 👍
I've never done it but someone a long time ago told me if I wanted to lower a fox mustang cheap and have a ride height of a 93 cobra use 4 banger mustang springs like I said I haven't done it so I don't know if it works
🔔😎 FWIW Back in the day 😳 showroom new cars often varied 1/2" or more in ride height. Production wasn't that perfect one to the next. JME 😎 Aftermarket springs ride too stiff, IMO. I'm not sliding around corners. 😁 Urethane bushings are .... Stiff and transmit road noise. 🙄 I've cut a bunch of springs the last 60 years.
Pairing the aftermarket spring with proper shocks helps alot. Alot of guys just slap lowering springs on with oem shocks and bitch about the ride being bad lol. Granted it still won't ride like a stock car but it isn't much more stiff and handling is alot better.
Hi Gary. I put Ford Motorsport "B" springs in my car many years ago. The front height is perfect but the rear has always looked a little too high to me. I had no idea that Ford condones cutting their springs. But before I do that, I think I'll look around for some springs from a steel roofed car, which brings up the questions, 1. Do coupes and hatchbacks have the same spring rates and 2. I've heard that 4 cylinder cars have even slightly softer springs than V8 cars. I imagine 4 cylinder cars have softer front springs but do you know anything about the rear springs. As always, thanks. Bill. 🦊🦊🐺🐺
Thank you for this great video iam gonna try this on my 5.0 ! what tire size you use on your vert ? my 91 GT vert look way to high with the tires i have now .
Great video and information. This is something I am dealing with right now. I am trying to figure out what type of springs my car has on it. I owned a lx 5.0 hatch back in the day and finally bought another one about a year ago. The suspension seems harsher than the stock ride quality I remember on my old car. The ride height seems like it may be slightly lower than stock. If anyone knows any secrets to figuring out what type of springs I have. If there are any markings to look for on them to tell if they may be stock and my memory about the ride quality is off. I appreciate any help.
To the best of my knowledge, looking at color and/or cross comparing them to other springs like them is the only way I know how. If you have a friend that knows springs, see if you can get them to take a look for you
I'm thinking you should consider selling me that black bird in the background and bring it down to Texas so I can get @TIP to do a Godzilla swap on it! 🤠
Hey man i was just wondering if you could help me out as i just bought a 91 lx hatch 5.0 5 speed in august and this will be my first spring with it, what oil weight should i be running? I wanna go with amsoil as a brand but wanna know if i should be running 10w-30 or different, i live in ontario canada and only drive when its warm out so been waiting patiently, theres a few things i gotta do to make the car run right and handle proper which i got alot with the car so its stock but 3.73 gears going in first
She looks good! Ford Motorsport said it all Brother! Debate over in my opinion!💯👊🏾
Thanks buddy! Yup agreed!!
Good idea! The vert is heavier in the rear too so that might cause it to sag more with coupe springs.
Yessir!
Love cutting springs! Invest the money you save on really good struts and shocks!
hahahaha! 👊
Notchbacks have issues here out back. All the lowering kits were aimed at hatches and gts and the lighter ass in the coupe made them too stiff. We'd routinely mix Eibach or BBK with four banger strings in the back.
I've found that soft springs with good anti roll bars and "soft" shocks are the best idea.
Well said bud. Thanks for sharing so others can learn as well 👍
Just bringing the old days you are man. Back to the 80s for everyone!
Hahaha you know it!
@@KASLCustoms Here is me goofing around with a playlist on putting Term X on my car, Notcho Libre...ruclips.net/video/4Vl1z7BF760/видео.html

LOL - yeah there is some thinking that needs to be done before the cut off wheel comes out 😉
Very nice, The vert looking sweet, really good choice not to cut those springs, it is spot on.
Thanks buddy!

You know it!
@@KASLCustoms of course I do! Those were my teenage years!😁
@@KASLCustoms Yo, VIP
Let's kick it
Ice ice baby
Ice ice baby
All right stop
Collaborate and listen
Ice is back with a brand new invention
Something grabs a hold of me tightly
Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will it ever stop?
Yo, I don't know
Turn off the lights and I'll glow
To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal
Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle
Dance
Go rush the speaker that booms
I'm killin' your brain like a poisonous mushroom
Deadly, when I play a dope melody
Anything less than the best is a felony
Love it or leave it
You better gangway
You better hit bull's eye
The kid don't play
And if there was a problem
Yo, I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
Ice ice baby, Vanilla
Ice ice baby, Vanilla
Ice ice baby, Vanilla
Ice ice baby, Vanilla
Now that the party is jumping
With the bass kicked in, the Vegas are pumpin'
Quick to the point, to the point, no faking
I'm cooking MC's like a pound of bacon
Burning 'em if you ain't quick and nimble
I go crazy when I hear a cymbal
And a hi-hat with a souped up tempo
I'm on a roll, it's time to go solo
Rollin' in my 5.0
With my ragtop down so my hair can blow
The girlies on standby
Waving just to say, "Hi"
Did you stop?
No, I just drove by
Kept on pursuing to the next stop
I bust a left and I'm heading to the next block
That block was dead
Yo, so I continued to A1A Beachfront Ave
Girls were hot, wearing less than bikinis
Rockman lovers driving Lamborghini
Jealous 'cause I'm out getting mine
Shay with a gauge and Vanilla with a nine
Ready for the chumps on the wall
The chumps are acting ill because they're so full of eight ball
Gunshots ranged out like a bell
I grabbed my nine, all I heard were shells
Fallin' on the concrete real fast
Jumped in my car, slammed on the gas
Bumper to bumper the avenue's packed
I'm tryin' to get away before the jackers jack
Police on the scene
You know what I mean?
They passed me up, confronted all the dope fiends
If there was a problem
Yo, I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
Ice ice baby, Vanilla
Ice ice baby, Vanilla
Ice ice baby, Vanilla
Ice ice baby, Vanilla
Take heed, 'cause I'm a lyrical poet
Miami's on the scene just in case you didn't know it
My town, that created all the bass sound
Enough to shake and kick holes in the ground
My style's like a chemical spill
Feasible rhymes you can vision and feel
Conducted and formed, this is a hell of a concept
We make it hype and you want to step with this
Shay plays on the fade, slice it like a ninja
Cut like a razor blade so fast
Other DJ's say, "Damn"
If my rhyme was a drug
I'd sell it by the gram
Keep my composure when it's time to get loose
Magnetized by the mic when I kick my juice
If there was a problem
Yo, I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
Ice ice baby, Vanilla
Ice ice baby, Vanilla
Ice ice baby, Vanilla
Ice ice baby, Vanilla ice
Yo man, let's get out of here
Word to your mother
Ice ice baby (too cold)

Great Vid bud. It's sits great. There is nothing wrong with a functional ride height.
Thanks pal!
So good to know. I have a 91 vert that I’d like to drop just a bit.

I had to come see how to lower a car without cutting. Nice job it makes since now!
Hahaha thx buddy!!!
I really liked this video,. I didn't know that coupe and convertible coils were actually different. Great info brother 🦊

LMR sells seat track extenders that work great. I'm 6'3 and they give me plenty of extra leg room in my '91.
You could just punch new holes and move the seat mounts rearward. Was commonly done decades ago.

Maybe i should run coupe springs in the rear of my hatch🤔
The coupe and hatch springs will share the same spring rate. Sorry if that was misleading...
