I think some mild bodywork was done on the doors. I worry about the paint being different underneath the dings. I still may give it a try shortly. Yes...stock SVT struts , car only has 26,000 miles on it. I did cut the front bump stops in half per Stazies recomendation in the "How-To" section "Struts and or Spring Replacement". Hope they last longer than 6 months...not ready for the Koni's $$$ quite yet.

I dont know why but now the car looks awful its still the same height in the front but the back is lowered about 2 inches more than before!! Something must be wrong If only i knew how to post pics on this site, i would let you guys see it for yourselves.. The car drives great tho.. it feels like thats the way its supposed to be but it doesnt look the way its supposed to be. I'm depressed anyways i will try to find the problem and if there is no problem.. I'm taking the damm things off and putting some OEM struts.. 98 silverfrost contour se duratec mtx eibach springs koni struts K&N P-Flow ford racing plug wires

The others were about gone. Got the Koni struts, and there was nothing like it. That car was extremely nice after the Koni change... haha if you look above I posted on this last year too... About the install.. did you leave a nut or something off? Mabee put a piece on the top of the strut housing that was suppose to go on the bottom? Heck I don't know till you can post some pics... Go to cardomian.com or fototime.com and upload the pics, then on here hit the Image button, insert the link, and post.
