Need help with rear coil springs on a Mach1

lukem80 · 01-04-2011, 07:09 AM

working on my friends mach1. he just bought some 15X10s with some ET streets. I think they are 275/60/15 or i think 26X10.50 speaking in american.

anyways his dumbass got 15X10s so they interfered with the cobra rear rotors/brakes...

we bought 1inch wheel spacers and that solved that problem. but now they rub on the fender lip.

I've rolled the fender lip.. but it will still rub some when you hit a decent bump in the road.

do you think switching over to a regular 99-04 GT rear spring would lift it up enough to solve our rubbing issue or would he need to buy some 'weight jacker' control arms??? or maybe somebody makes coil spring spacers??

I thought bullitts and mach1s were lowered from the factory 1/2 or 3/4??

anyway here is a picture of it

its got a procharger and a built auto with a 2300 stall. really makes me NOT miss working on my old cobra at all. complex engine/belt routing BS!!
