Hi all, I snapped a coil spring on the drivers side and purchased duralast springs from Autozone, had the dealer install, now the front sits so much higher than before large gap between the wheel well, the install tech advised that when he was installing the springs he noticed that they were thicker and stiffer than the factory ones he was pulling out and since one was snapped i had no choice at the time. I Just want the factory look and Motorcraft does not make a Spring for the car. The factory ones from the dealer are BIG$$$$$, I am afraid that if I keep trying aftermarket ones I'll run in to this problem again. Can anyone recommend an after market spring that sits the same height that they used. Thank you in advance. Dave

Or you can cut a coil or so off the new springs to lower it down to the original height.

I would try www.car-part.com or check with Blackmobile. He is selling parts off his totalled rustfree MM.

Did I miss something? I thought Ray the dealer's shop went out of business.
