i have em on my 2k maxima and they offer the best ride quality with a subtle drop.. my 97 sho is still sitin tall.

I've never seen H&R's for sedans before so I'd bet that's a wagon set. Either way the front spring rate is probably too low for the weight of the car.

 

[LOUDSHO92]

Yeah they are wagon only. The fronts will only work, but not the rears.

Will fit either one. Does not matter wagon or sedan.

Hello, Are these for the Taurus Wagon ONLY, or for the Taurus sedan? How well would they work for the Taurus SHO?
Thanks.

Seller said it will fit either one...

If he said that.. are you really going to believe him? I would trust the guys that know what they are talking about.

According to the SLO guys in the TCCA the rears won't work.

Someone's terribly misinformed. Forum members or eBay salesman. You decide.

H&R Springs

I have these in my wagon and they are great but they will only fit wagons not both.......the springs on the sedan are struts were the wagons use out boaard springs with a shock.......Yuo can use the fronts though.....

 

[SableSal]

I personally would only use the fronts anyhow David. Once you lower the rear, the rear still looks a bit saggish due to the wheel well cut out. If I could do it again, I would run SHO springs in the rear, and Eibachs in the front.

I would go for that set, use the fronts, and throw away the rest.

I tried running Eibachs in the front and OEM springs in the back. Gives a nice raked look but I was running out of gas at an 1/8 of a tank as the pitch caused the fuel to move forward away from the fuel pickup.

SHOALL ... when I saw your wagon, I thought for a moment it was a pic of mine.

I do like your wheels!
