You could always lower the front end............


[idea]

 

Air bags.

Saw they were avail. to fit from someone running them in autocross section.

Awsome that seems like it would work well! Any ideas for the other accessories i would need to accumulate to have a fully working setup? Like the compressor n switches or what ever? Thanks a ton!!![sleeping]

 

Wouldn't need anything extra with that, it's a helper bag kit - not an air ride system.

Pump up with anything, 12V emergency pump would be enough. Whatever you use for tires.

( I oughta get one, that's not a bad price to keep it level when you throw junk in the trunk...) tempting

 

You could try the rear springs from an 05-07 zx4. My brothers ST sat with a 5" wheel gap stock. That would leave you with about 2.5" (or about the stock height) with your weight. Even if its a little more in the back if you need to level out your car in the front SVT springs will drop about .5", Ford racing adds about 1.5" which is about the lowest you go to keep it above the wheel.

example of the car your looking for rear springs to try.

I can't imagine somebody doesn't have some used springs for you to try to use for super cheap.


Also: As far as i can tell there is only a difference between the front struts mainly but I could be wrong. Worth a shot in your case.

 

My god thats gonna be a killer sound system. When I installed my sound system in my car i had sound deadening material spread throughout the car and especially in the back. The sound deadening material with a 40lb sub sitting in the trunk added around 200 overall in the car and maybe 150lb over the back wheels. My car sagged in the back a little more than an inch. not nearly as much weight as you will have though. What I did is when I lowered my car i lowered the front more then the back and just about made it even. If you don't plan to lower your car you could use coil spring clamps on the rear like these http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/230804062418?lpid=82 . however thats a very cheapy fix and is not good for your car and ride quality will suffer.

Yeah its gunna be pretty nasty, Iforgot to mention the subs are kcker solo x 18s, the manual states each sub weighs approx. 103Lbs. The magnet rings are 1" thick 12" wide slugs. I think im just gunna buy the air bags, cuz i have the extra cash at hand right now. add me on facebook (allan luberda) to see the update and build process. Ita gunna be a 150+ Decibel "Db" subwoofer system. Thats louder than a 747 at take off, Squeezed Into a ford focus walled off behind the seats.[wrenchin]
