Differences in Struts
 
Any one know what the difference is in the 87-93 front struts and the 94-up struts...I'm looking to do the struts on my '93 GT, but will be upgrading to SN-95 spindles eventually...which struts should I use? I'd looking to go with the Tokico Illumina 5 ways, but not sure which ones to order. Thanks

Contact PPI at www.mustangparts.com .
THey will tell you to tun the 87-93 struts, as these are a wee bit shorter, and thus have more travel (on a lowered car) before bottoming out.
I ran the 87-93 Koni Yellows on my setup, with the SN95 spindles...

Wow, that k-member looks good!

How are those Koni's working for you? And what's the difference between Koni Reds, Yellows, and Tokico Illuminas?

Tokikos are more of a street strut.
The reds are stiffer, but not nearly as stiff as the yellows are, and are needed for the 425# coilovers I run.
