Are you sure the springs are linear all around? In the video review of the springs only (I supppse the same ones) you indicate that the front is progressive, back linear. It is also what I heard from some Pedders retailers. Please clarify.
Thank you for making a video going over how to change out the struts and shocks for this Mustang. I would caution against using the old hardware for the new struts and shocks because of the amount of torque used to secure the hardware and the years of load stress that the parts have endured. Even the manufacturer tells you not to reuse the old hardware. If you're going to do the replacement yourself, I encourage you to purchase new parts. Average total cost for new OEM hardware on ebay is around $204. Add in the new hardware for a new adjustable panhard bar (yes you'll need one) and it totals out to around $262. Is it expensive? I suppose, but it's much less expensive than having one or more of these bolts snap while driving at highway speeds.
Whats the stock spring rate, I read in a forum it 185 pounds, so this will be a little stiffer...I assume. Im considering these for my 2013 V6, my build is geared towards long weekend drives down the coast, and other winding roads. These seem like a good deal, and the right option, your thoughts?

You have to give credit to ford for its ease on working on the S197s rear end.
That Mustang is Supercharged! 😎👍
