RTZ that photo is of a front coil over set. He was asking for rears. :-)

Griggs has a bolt in set. Must buy it with the shock. Allows use of different length springs as well as your choice of spring rate. Their coil over set goes into the stock shock location and uses the standard spanner adjustment with locking set screws.

The shocks they use are Koni's with a heim joint at the axle mount to eliminate the bushing. Two choices of shock; street or race. The race shock is just that, race. Only two adjustments very stiff valving.
Haven't tried the street shock but it has to be more forgiving than the race shock.

For more info call Griggs.

I have a photo of my rear coilovers on my user rides page. Media file #2. Shows the Griggs torque arm, panhard rod and shocks.
You can easily see how it fits perfect in stock mount locations.

Note the exhaust was not installed yet and the control arms were backwards in this photo(the heim joint should be on the body side not the axle side. oops!).

Check out my ride.

It sure is nice and roomy without the mufflers.

I like those coil overs too.

Although the picture was wrong, Central Coast Mustangs does make a rear coilover kit for $299.
