Yes there is a difference between a generic mustang II ifs with a coil-spring and shock and a coil-over ifs.

1.With the coil-over you will have the benefit to adjust the rebound on the shock and you can adjust the spring tension.With correct stroke in your shock and the correct spring rate.Your coil-over ifs will ride alot smoother over your coil-spring.

One this to remember when it is set up correctly it will ride BETTER.

If you have any questions on buying a quality built ifs you can send us a e-mail or you call us at the shop and we can explain to you what we have to offer
