Which street/strip front suspention to buy
I want to upgrade my front suspention and go to a coil over setup. I have a Mustang 84 that have a best of 12.45 @ 111 Mph.
I want to optimise my car for the strip but want to keep a minimum of streetability. I want to use the tokico illumina shocks or the KYB AGX. My stang weight 3140lbs with me in the car. I have fiberglass hood and aluminium head. Here is my questions : 1 - Which coil over kit will work with the tokico or kyb. 2 - Which lenght and springs rate to use. 3 - Which caster/camber plate to use ( Aluminium or steel ) 4 - Can i still use the factory A-Arm. 5 - Do on track adjustment on the coilover will disrupt alignement Tanks to help me buy the right parts |

Any kit will work, you may have to cut the collar at the top of the strut. 2. 14" length.......you will need a spring rate in the 150-130 lb area. 130#-more strip 150#-more street 3. Any caster camber plate. Im running the stockers. 4. Yes 5. No * I would buy the Strange 10-way adjustable struts. Only $110 is a steal for the adjustability.
