Cobra Jet drag springs

[fdjizm]

So ummm CJ/V6 springs are the new fad? lol

$70 for 4 springs is a good deal and if they help with the launch all the better but yes, they seem to be the flavor of the month!

There was a long discussion on whether or not the CJ springs are the same as the V6 springs or were they Bullit springs, it was so long I went cross eyed reading it.

 

[Pumpkinfish]

I lost track of if people are installing all 4 or just the rears. I still don't know.

 

[white05gt]

I think most are just installing the rears.

 

[Greg Hazlett]

I thought about that but then what do I do with 2 CJ front springs and 2 UPR rear springs? I should have purchased the CJ's in the first place but...that's why I decided to install the CJ's and sell the UPR's...too bad someone doesn't just sell the CJ rears!

true but for what the CJ's cost it's no big deal.or test drive a 6 banger and pull the old switch-a-rooney.lol

rent a v6 stang. 20 bucks per day. BAM $20 for springs! and you gave them an "upgrade" lol

 

[Greg Hazlett]

LOL...never thought about that!

Received my CJ springs today, wow, I ordered them from Mustard yesterday and they arrived today! Part number on the box is M-5300-Q, spring number on the rear ones are SFF(yellow tag) 6R33-5310-FA E29EJ. Front spring number: SAR (light blue tag) 9R33-5560-AA E29EJ.

 

[doogie]

FYI... you have those numbers reversed as the fronts are the yellow tag.

But nice to the numbers match mine exactly!

 

[Greg Hazlett]

Oops! Good catch! Do you have the CJ's or the V6 springs? Wonder how it would ride/look if I left the UPR's in the front and the CJ's in the back?

My concern would be at the track the weight transfer of having the UPR's in the front and the CJ's on the back...what do you think-would it be better if all 4 were of the same manufacturer?

 

[doogie]

I have the CJs, but not installed yet. I am still debating on just installing them out back or both, but my fronts are still stock.

Springs

Huh...it did not help your 60's at all?

My 60' were already at 1.52 with stock springs & shocks!

 

[Greg Hazlett]

Good grief! Those are awesome 60 ft times!

 

[Tom]

I have another set in stock if anyone is interested. Shoot me a Pm

Thanks guys

 

[Greg Hazlett]

Mustard had the best pricing I could find anywhere, bought them yesterday and they were delivered today, great guy to do business with!

 

[NastyStang113]

I just want someone to come out with a damn spring with good weight transfer that lowers the car about .5"... Santa?

 

[doogie]

As another reference point, here's a side by side comparison between stockers, CJs, and Roush. I just swapped out the Roush's this morning with the CJs and my new ride height is not that bad looking. Granted, not as low as the Roush's, but still lower than stock. I know it will settle a little once I drive it in the spring, but as of now both sides measure ~28.5 in to the fender lip. Mine might actually sit a bit lower than a coupe given the extra weight of the ragtop. And since I want to run 28in DRs, that should make it look about right along with having a little rake.

 

[Tom]

Thats a great pic. Thats helpful for all who are interested. Thanks Doogie

 

[Greg Hazlett]

It may be stupid but...I assume the spring to the left is the CJ, blue is Roush and the one to the right is stock?
