Brock-Lee Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 Did I hear you say super wide 14" tridents? Sounds like an epic plan! The colours this thing contains is magical. 1 Quote
CaMpylobacter Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 so rulez. also, fuck balljoint bind. are you really going to go that low straight away? I vote yes. just do it. drop spindles if it gives you issues. then bring it back and do skids on the old owners driveway whilst he cries Quote
Spencer Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 Bro it's just mustang suspension, sweet as to slam it a little bit/lots. Make up a tool to compress the springs in the fro t and get them out sweet Quote
morkster Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 none of those pictures are of it slammed. Why? Also aftermarket springs and some nice new shocks won't make it yuck ride quality I wouldn't think man. This. If you are 'thinking of getting a set of standard springs and choppy chop chop' you most likely will mess with the ride quality as a shorter spring is a harder spring. Sweet car by the way. Quote
camo_78 Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 word of warning,if you chop more than a coil and a half off the rears you will need shorter shocks,i made this mistake with the first lot of springs i chopped in my XF,took 2 coils out=uncaptive as fook.wasnt an issue though as its a skid car,but ive since raised it in the rear on a new pair with 1.5 out and they are captive just Quote
Ogre Posted September 18, 2013 Author Posted September 18, 2013 ^ Wouldnt even bother keeping standard shocks anyway. You can now get ultra low king springs which will apparantly give a 70mm drop Is there anywhere that i can find out the spring rates of selected kingsprings or similar/what the standard falcon spring rates are? Quote
xsspeed Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 King's website has a list of all the details iirc, as for the OG spec, I am not sure sorry Quote
CaMpylobacter Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 70mm aint enough. you need to lose around 100mm 5 Quote
CaMpylobacter Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 looking at pics, you at least need to drop to at least the borderline of tyre tuck at the front, and rear to match. make this happen. cheers. also, was talking to a joker that saw you driving this in weekend. was all "TELL THE CUNT TO CHUCK A TURBO KIT FROM THE 80S ON THERE AND DO A SKID" Quote
CaMpylobacter Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 twin suck through strombergs mafucker. 5 Quote

HighLUX Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Go see colin with the junkyard in edgecumbe He has some 14x9ish hotwires with new eagers for like $800 Would make it super bogan gangspec 1 Quote
HighLUX Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 and a set of louvers for the rear screen 2 Quote
KKtrips Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 TRIDENTS Referring to the minutes that the secretary took - it looks like Bizzo is right. So jog on with your 12 slots and hotwires/basketweaves/20" steels. although 20" steels would be super boss TBH. 1 Quote
