How Low to drop the Cobra

[auditt0076]

Should I drop it with just springs of coil-overs.
and any suggestions will help.
Thanks

Coils, and as low as possible!

+1!

coilovers. i switched to coils on the front of my mustang, currently in progress on the back. used maximum motorsport's bilstein setup. much much much better than springs could ever be.

[Zack01GC]

Coilovers, and crank them down until there's no wheel gap.

[hechtspeed]

Coilovers! "Crank em down to 90, eh" Sorry, on a Strange Brew kick. Love them SN95 Cobras! You know how Mustang guys put 17x10.5's on the rear and then wuss out and put 17x9's on the front. I always wanted to see a stang with 17x10.5's on all 4's! Do it!!!

I'm pretty sure everyone has told you exactly what I told you, and thats coils, but since you say they don't make them for the car my only other responce is, make them, then put them all the way down

There used to be a cobra around town that tucked tire on 18's it was sicker then a kid with swine flu. He was on a coil-over conversion.
I'll search when I get home I may have a pic.

[Tuck&Poke]

they have to have coilovers for that car, aftermarket support is HUGE

[frink84]

i have coilovers on my 88 mustang, has same setup that would go on your cobra. www.maximummotorsports.com is the manufacturer. my fronts are tucking a tiny bit o tire and i have at least 3" on the threaded collar left. low is not a problem. havent finished install on the rears, but from the look of it, should be similar low ability. will be posting pics when im done

Thizz.

Coils, they make them. Look harder, here is a link to one of many companies that make them pretty reasonably priced.

[c-ron]

the adjustability on those is terrible.

[vdubkid]

Asking "how low to go" around here is silly, because the only answer is "as low as possible"

[6erWebb]

I think the stanceworks method is: Coils, drop it til it wont roll, raise it 1/2 inch, Profit ;)

bleh to nex on mustangs. maxmimum motorsports and griggs are the two setups that most road-race people run. QA1 and UPR make more drag-oriented stuff. i essentially have this setup:

It is costly new, but i picked up most everything used and spend maybe 800 putting it all together. allows super-low status and is well-made in the USA

[schroedin]

Needs these, Boyd Coddington Heckle I believe.

My cobra is on eibach sportlines w/ koni adjustable yellow struts and shocks, maximum motorsport caster camber plates and steeda bump steer kit. Could be lower if I didnt put the isolators in...

oh, and when you order the rear shocks (not struts) get ones from the fox body, they bolt right up but have more travel.

[loneStar22]

i wanna see a slammed IRS cobra thread. mustangs with camber ftw

[hechtspeed]

Ditto Lonestar22! This Cobra needs more low and 18x12 wheels. Hey, if 240's can pull it off, SN's should be able too. Good size wheel well back there, and roll/pull that fender too.

[Zack01GC]

They can do it.

Ground Control makes Coils for Mustangs too, if I'm not mistaken.

Coils + CCW Classics. Then that car would be epic.

[e36cruiser]

I agree irs would be sick with camber, many guys that have 03-04 cobras that drag race actually convert to solid rear end to get rid of wheel hop. So if you keep a look out you may be able to find a whole rear suspension for a decent price. I think pulling out the fenders would be hard because it wouldnt flow at all with the body but it would look agressive as F*CK. I would love to see a fellow cobra stanced, Just isnt gunna happen to mine due to $$.

[fatjodz]

not a cobra but i'm working on it. glad to see there's other sn95 owners who enjoy a nice stance. i'm on H&R supersport springs, fox body tokico HPs, steeda X2 lower balljoints in front for another 1/2" lower...it's as low as it can go without a coilover conversion and cutting springs. and unfortunately the cats are only a couple inches off the ground already

[schroedin]

A couple inches? Thats plenty of room :rofl

[Kielan]

So what you are saying is that you have a couple of inches that can be used for moar low. If it's not scraping while driving on flat roads, you need moar low. :rofl





But seriously.
