Got some Tein Stechs last week for $120 on ebay, and was lucky to get the chance to use my colleagues garage. I wish I could do a DIY, but I did not have time to spare and did not want to take up too much time in his garage with his other projects going on. Currently he is working on his boat, motorcycle and his 69 mustang. I could not believe what he had in his mustang, it was a 427 super snake, good for about 500 + whp. He is still working on getting the rear end of the car done before he can drive it. But the car was really awesome, very authentic.I will be following his project closely and someday do a photo shoot with his car when it is done. And he has another super snake engine waiting to gp into another project car of his. This project will be even better and I will get more details when he actually starts it, until then here are some pictures form this weekend.

This was after we did the front ones, did not get a chance to take pictures of that




We did the rear springs without taking the wheels off, it was so much easier todo, as the struts just drop down. Took us only about an hour and a half to do the rear springs



This is the mustang and what you see here is a 427 super snake, really cool!, this was a drag car before he started the project.


You can see my car in the back here, it was a really big shop but was packed full.

 

side shots please

 

These pics were just from the shop, i haven't really taken pics of the car after the install. Will do so this weekend as post. Just wanted to share some pics form the weekend.

 

Takes some more!

 

Moar

 

Dude, $120.00 off ebay? did you get the fake ones? or are they real? and did the installer preload? lol

 

Yes they are real, it was a open box item and some guy from the forum was selling them on ebay. He never installed them and had to sell his car I think. I did not preload them we just installed it straight from the box, and the drop looks about right to me. Maybe it can go a little lower in the back but I am ok with how it is now. Will def post pictures soon instead of trying to explain.

 

Way too late, but finally got some pictures

 

lookin good are your headlights painted? the drop looks great i think the stechs are awesome for an affordable drop!

 

looks great same question though ^^

 

the signature says smoke lights so i guess they r smoke

 

lookin good bro

 

Yes, the headlights are smoked. But I have a overlay on them. Got the taillights and head lights at the same time used lighter shade on the front though.

 

Nice, I can't wait to get my drop.

 

Looks good. Some reason looks like its still riding a bit high. It should drop down a bit more after a week of driving.

 

looks good...now I'm gonna have to tint mine becasue that just looks clean

 

Its been more than a few weeks since I dropped it. I did measure, they are pretty close to what Tein has specified though.

 

You should, tint definitely transforms the look.

 

looks good. how much did you drop it.

 

It says in the OP; S-techs

 

Your car looks awesome! How is the ride with the stock shocks though?

 

The ride is pretty good. I did not notice a lot of difference. But the stiffness is higher now. I do like the way it feels now.

 

Front looks high to me. I would preload them IMO.

 

Your car looks great!
Did you get the alignment done yet?

 

+1 car looks great, its a nice drop. Can you give more details on how it rides? You say its stiffer buy does it get too rough over bumps or does it still handles the bumps ok without getting too hard and bouncy? Been thinking of lowering my car since it looks too high, but I like the smoother ride right now, specially over bumps. Debating on RB or S-techs.
