ive heard of ppl say you can put foxbody struts/shocks on a lowerd sn95 because the fox struts/shocks are shorter than the sn95 ones..is this true? my 95 gt is lowerd on eibach sportlines no isos and its time for new struts/shocks anyways...thoughts? pros? cons? will it work? thanks guys

it works and it will ride better because foxbody shocks/struts will be further from the bumpstops than sn95 ones will.
