So I finally got to order my Fe5 shocks and struts and I slapped on some SSC springs and MOOG endlinks along with them and I LOVE the combo! Install was not really that tough, it was just a matter of adding the right amount of torque to all the bolts and having some time to finish the project. It took me about 5 hours with simple hand tools. Here's my pics, Enjoy!

Ew, steelies! lol, just playing. Drop looks good, you will probably see another quarter to half inch as it all settles. Enjoy!

Thanks! You will not regret it! Drop is clean, gets low, but not so low that you scrape on every bump, and the ride is just right. This is my first Lowered car and I feared that it would be too bouncy or too stiff, but IMO SSC balances perfectly between the two.

Drop looks good, best combo imo.

must be nice to live in a spot where your old strut looks like your new strut still mine look like they've gone through ww2

Don't forgot to have your alignment checked out after the first 200 miles or so......

Lmao! I was thinking that mine were pretty bad after 7 years, but then again I haven't gone through snow or lots of mud with those bad boys lol
