what are your goals for your car handling racing auto x?

if its for racing i would just leave in your stock ones n cut a coil. handling i'd go with the pro kit, dont know much about the b or c that ford offers.

For drifting you need coil overs! And use a tubular A arms you have the subframes and torque boxes done! Now you need call Precision fabrication. And Duncan. For the next step. Roll Cage. And custom suspension work [patriot]

Ric, I'll have rear coil overs and springs for sale soon if you want to wait. What I'll be selling are rear MM coil over kit w/bilstein HD shocks and coil over springs, front Bilstein HD struts with coil over springs...all you'll need to find is the matching front coil over kit/hardware.

if you plan to drift get specific rate coils over progressive. your car may get upset while drifting with the change in rate if you were to run progressive.

+1 progressive rate sucks for performance, especially drifting
