After 9 Months I'm Still Taken Aback By The Foxbody Popularity.

In reply to codrus (Forum Supporter) :

I recall reading the competitive autcrossers were using spring rates up front better labeled "no-way-this-is-moving".

What's the old quote?  "Any suspension will work if you don't let it".

My man! The Capri is not nearly as ubiquitous, but can still use most of the Mustang's aftermarket. Plus, box flares!

The folks I knew who ran Fox bodies on the track would put huge spring rates on them, crank in massive amounts of negative camber, and still demolish the outsides of the tires in short order.  At least until they spent the money on replacing the front subframe and control arms with aftermarket parts that relocated all the suspension pickup points.

We had some major flooding here over the summer. I went for a ride to check out some of the damage and almost cried when I saw them pulling this SVO out.
