Solar Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Hello!So I am currently on Bilstein HD struts/shocks with H&R SS Springs. I was wondering if installing the stock springs would affect the ride quality. Well, yes it would change it of course but what I am asking is if the struts/shocks will not be as functional due to the ride height. This question came to mind because when I lowered the Mustang, I did it by springs first and of course the struts/shocks were too compressed.

iRoush Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 you'll be fine to drive on the bilsteins, they basically act as a stock replacement that's valved a little bit stiffer. so ride quality will be slightly stiffer than stock but not like a honda bounce kind of stiff.

Solar Posted June 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 haha, o dear no. I wouldn't get rid of them...well...maybe. And if I do, it would be in November. Either putting stock springs in (which I think I threw away) or converting to coilovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solar Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Converting the Bilsteins to Coils via MM. Just wondering. How high can one go with the coils? Stock height? I may be going up and down as need be. Will suck for alignments though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
