I would never let someone work on my car and just sit and watch. I buy broken things for the fun of fixing them. It was a way of saying come and help me do things that take more than one person to do and I’m in Ohio.
Although, unlike most of you on here it seems have more than one car. I can’t have my car be down more than a few hours since I need it to get to work everyday.

Well I have a family reunion in Tennessee this weekend so no car stuffs but next week new suspension will be going in. I just went to NMCA at Summit Dragway this weekend and definitely got some inspiration to keep grinding at the mustang.

I didn’t put it on yet but I think it’s gonna look great. For 60 bucks shipped the paint quality looks really good and matches well

This thread sucks.

I'm "Chris the friend." Always yelling at Jon about shit. Scope my build thread in the 1G CL subforum.

https://acurazine.com/forums/first-generation-cl-discussion-1997-1999-56/beanstune-builds-3-0cl-daily-973084/

hopefully we can get his suspension done soon.

Very subtle but I really like how it adds a little touch to the rear. Next Friday new suspension goes on

Only 3 more days until D-Day, hopefully all goes well, my plan is to have it all done friday night. Got my suspension Guru on the job- Beanstune. Only concern are thes huge balloon tires last owner threw on, 215-55-17......they make the car look like crap and handle terrible. New wheels/tires next year.

Thank you sir. 15/20. I’m just hoping it doesn’t rub after it’s lowered tonight. Darn monster truck tires

I have 15/20 as well and don't rub lowered on coils. Granted I am rolled but I don't think its even close. I haven't really had to deal with it since I clear.

Not the fastest I've ever done a shock/spring install, but about 2 hours is pretty standard.

now post pics!

So the Konis and springs are in along with the j-pipe. Shout out to Beanstune, The guy is a guru...he had the old Front shocks out and new ones in with drilling everything, and was done with the Front in about 45 minutes. The rears were obviously a little tougher because of this crazy back seat over-engineering but all went well. The car rides amazingly and looks great. I really like the stance especially with the spacers. So happy its done. Some quick parking lot pics to come...

looking great, nice and subtle mods!
I miss that style of roof spoiler, can't beat the price for a pre-painted roof spoiler.

Nice!

Post up some side views prior to 18’s! If you can!

I just mounted a-spec 18’s a few months back, and it makes a difference!


have you aligned it yet? Any camber kits?
