Re: Front end rise
Just an update: I took the front moroso springs out of the car today so that I can cut another coil out to get the ride height correct. I noticed that the lower control arm bushings seems to be binding. These are new polyurethane bushings and seem to be thicker than the stock rubber ones. I cut the bushings down some to give some added clearance. It looks like there is no resistance issues that I can tell. So hopefully this help solve the front end rise issue. Thanks for all the help and suggestions. Jason

Re: Front end rise
Yes, I used poly on the Mustang as well Jason and had to do some trimming to free it up.

Re: Front end rise
To be polite, guessing is tough and of course a lot of us have no other way to approach fixing a problem. But there's a complete way out. Complete answers to all of your suspension questions can be found in one book. Very easy to understand too. Very easy. You can buy this book on Amazon used approx. $40 usually. Then you'll have everything you'll ever need to know in one book. It's titled "A Chassis Book - DoorSlammers" by Dave Morgan.

Re: Front end rise
Had it before there was even an Amazon...still have to put hands on the car. If a book could easily solve all problems then there would be no need for this forum.

Re: Front end rise
An exceptionally thoughtless reply. Good for you. Really trumped gathering a complete education right there.
How about this - With the book, you do not need anyone here. Jesus.....:-/ |

 Exceptionally thoughtless reply? You were being condescending suggesting that a book would "completely" negate any need for inquiry or discussion about a specific problem. Books are wonderful things at times, but they do not always provide the wealth of experience from those that have "been there - done that". It is infuriating at times to ask questions and get responses like "hit the search button" or "buy a book". To paraphrase, I believe my reply is "very easy to understand...very easy". Let's just say your reply was poorly crafted and leave it at that. My apologies to Jason for fouling his thread.
