In my opinion 03/04 Cobra factory springs 1 coil cut no ISO's give absolutely perfect stance on a cobra and ride like a Cadillac with the factory bilstein struts,I myself and many others i know have ran this setup many times on 03/04 Cobras and IRS swapped 96-04 mustangs..No need for aftermarket springs what so ever the factory springs provide great ride and look believe it or not,many threads on svtp on this subject and I'm sure many would agree..

I wish I would've gone this route with mine. Whatever you do don't go with h&r sports. Mine are soft as hell and they caused my wheels to hit the fender wells while hitting corners. It's annoying! Cut the factory coils or go coil overs

H&R sport springs are terrible, but the H&R Race I had with my IRS with the factory bilstein shocks/struts was a perfect combo.


It's easy to deal with the rear IRS springs, just unbolt the brake calipers and shocks, then the upper cradle bolts and the whole assembly swings down from the car body giving you access to the springs
