im swapping out the rear shocks and i might as well go ahead and put some springs in there as well.for those of you guys who have used the fox 4cyl springs i need to know exactly what you bought and exactly how to cut the springs as well.any information will be appreciated and i only want to do this once and do it the right way with no mess ups.so give me all the info i will need and what i need to do to make them fit.i know your supposed to cut some of the srpings and yes i did search but i didnt get the exact specifications on how to make this work.so anyone with info please post.thanks.

i believe the people using fox springs are only using them in the front. I believe the ideal combo is stock gt springs in the back with the foxes in the front ranging from stock to 1/2 a coil cut. PM ZW99GT, i believe he has/had some fox springs on his ride

iight thanks.

I can send you my 4CLY fox springs if you want them. I don't think people cut them. You cut the rears exactly 1coil , and you'll be good to go.

I really like the stance of my car, but I'm going with coilovers.

around here people cut one coil out of the front 4cyl springs and keep the gt springs

Do you have any pics of that? My car scrapes on everything, and the chin spolier is pretty damn low. I can't imagine them without a coil.

My 4cyl springs are cut 1/2 turn......

Yes sir. I'll even send you my isolators, incase some of yours a chewed up. Pop out the old, and in with the new. Mine aren't cut or modified at all, so if you wanted to go lower, you can do it yourself.

Here's the stance. Back when I had 17's. Sorry it looked so stupid. stock rear springs [:'(]

Thanks, the front has Lakewood 90/10 so it kinda just floats along , the rear is Fox V8 springs cut to height with AGX adjustables. The rear is set rather stiff but not harsh at all.[8D]

JayC... well, 1st of all this is off topic...

but wuts done to your car?


and to stay on topic... how are 4banger springs and 90/10s on the street? are they 90/10s for a new edge? or the shorter, fox ones?

I don't have 90/10's but the fox springs are great on the street.

yea i have 4 banger springs, no swaybar, and strange 10 ways(always set as loose as possible), and skinnies, on my fox...

my main concern is how are 90/10s daily driving? i think ill just do it and deal with it

im tempted to pull te 4banger springs out of my fox and throw them in the 02

I have stock struts with 115k miles, fox 4's, 3.5in welds and no sway bar on my DD. I can't imagine adding that 90/10's would upset mine anymore than it already is

thats what im thinkin, it cant be anything i cant deal with, the way the 5.0 is set up didnt bother me at all, if anything leavin red lights was fun lol

Not bad at all. The front settles down very well in curves and doesn't dive excessivly on braking. It's very comfy for interstate driving as well[8D]

well i think im going to buy the kyb agx adjustable rear shocks and use fox springs upfront.if i want to cut my rear gt springs will i need to have a different shock out back or will the adjustable work fine with cut gt springs in the back?and zw im getting paid tomrow so i think im going to take those springs off your hands?have any pics?what condition are they in?let me know.
