Re: Suspension Almost Finished!
They where the sports springs from the level 2 suspension. I would have to get model. But here is a pic.

Re: Suspension Almost Finished!
I would keep an eye on your UCA's, especially the drivers side arm. If you stuff the drivers side of the axle enough you'll tweak that arm into a pretzel. Ask me how I know.
ON EDIT: Drive the car for a couple of weeks then remove the rear sway bar. I found that the car will ride better and handle with more confidence.

Ford puts a large diameter bar in the rear to make up for the soft springs. When you upgrade to stiffer springs/shocks you no longer need such a large bar and it can actually hurt your handling by adding bind to the rear end. Just give it a couple of weeks to get used to it, then remove it as a comparison.

Re: Suspension Almost Finished!
Took a ride in the Mach today. Have to say I was impressed with the handling.

I drove with mine on my '85 (a full W2W car) for 10 laps, I took it off and never put it back on during the 4 years that I raced. Also on my '95 the sway bar was never there (broke off), I never have really even thought of putting it back on. As Nathan said just try it as a comparison. You may like the new feeling, you may not, but you won't know until you try it.
