Default 2007 Mustang GT swap to GT500 suspension

So today thanks to a huge helping hand by Dan and Chris i was able to get one step further into my suspension. If you don't know what i currently have done then let me list it all. My front suspension now sits slightly higher but i'm waiting for the springs to settle a bit more. I like the ride so far so i'm keeping my fingers crossed that i continue to like it lol

J&M Lower Control Arms
J&M Double Adjustable Upper Control Arm
GT500 Front Sway Bar (normal driving mode)
GT500 Rear Sway Bar
GT500 Front Strut Mounts
GT500 Front Springs
GT500 Front Struts

I have awaiting install a set of GT500 shocks and am working on finding a set of Roush Rear springs. Then add an Adjustable Panhard bar and i'll be set for a while at least

no problem. glad we could get it done and it went safe and smooth. meeting up with jon afterwards was fun too.

pick up the rear springs and we will get that done too before it snows..

modding is never done. when you get bored you start modding your mods... crazy right? thank you dan for letting us borrow tools and getting us to the finish line.
