I think the springs are shot on my 86 tc and was wondering if anyone has used any of the SN95 coil springs on their cars? If so, which ones? I know that Chuck W is using 79-93 C springs in the front with 94-04 convertible ones in the back.

Quite a few people have including me. They are recommended over Fox Stang Springs because the SN-95s are closer (weight wise) to our cars.
Most of the pics are gone, but the info is still there.

Here is a few pics of my car, next to a stock height, with sn95 coupe, 1.75" drop springs. Don't forget my car has a V8.

I had some rubbing at full lock turning on the a-arms. Other than that, nothing.
