Tokico......need your opinions
 
Has anyone used Tokico springs and shocks/struts (non-adjustable)? They have suspension packages that include lowering springs (drops 1.25") and shocks and struts, one package is non-adjustable and the other package is the Illuminas. I'm looking at the one with the non-adjustables. Shox.com has the package for $389 (non-adjust). What do you think of them? Also, I don't know if I will or will not be getting rid of the stang. It'll be after the first of the year before I know. (for the individual that asked me about it on a previous post)

I have a 97 Cobra with the whole Steeda setup (dropped 1.25 inches with Steeda Sport Springs) with the Tokico Illuminas (adjustable).

I'm pretty sure Tokico does not make springs. But Tokicos are designed to, and work very well with lowered suspensions.

Well according to their website, www.tokicogasshocks.com, they do make/sell springs. I know a guy on another board that had a set on his stang last year. Anyways, thanks for the info

Hey, learn something new everyday! http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...oard/smile.gif

If they make springs, then I'll take a wild guess and say they work pretty well with their shocks, which are very good.

Thanks for the info.

I've got Tokico non-adjustable shocks and struts and Steeda sport lowering springs on my 97 Mustang GT. It made a huge differance in handling. Try it, I know you'd love it!
