At the minimum get an adj panhard bar and some camber bolts, if you plan to drop it really low get some CC plates. Do it right the first time.
PS, when I lowered my last mustang (2007 GT) with the Eibach Prokit it needed the bolts and the bar. I got them both from BMR.[FONT=&quot][/FONT]

Okay, so I have been reading and I have seen a lot of posts where you need to get lowering springs, caster camber plates, and adjustable panhard bar to lower the car. Other posts I see people say they just put on the lowering springs.

My question is will I need to buy everything right away? Or can I put the springs on first and and then later do the panhard, and later on do the camber plates? Or does it all have to be done at once? This stuff gets pricey!


No you don't, however, buy the springs with the panhard. Since you're going with eibach, cc plates are not necessary. I had K springs, same as eibach, on 18's and alignment was perfect. Only reason I put cc plates on is now I'm running 20's I want to make sure my alignment is dead on. Keep in mind, with cc plates, you will hear more noise from the front suspension.

Adj panhard bar and camber bolts should be required when running an Eibach Pro Kit or similar drop. Your rearend will be out of line and depending on what size tire and rim offset you run, the diffence between rear left and right wheels is very apparent.

I run a Pro Kit and my alignment was out enough that I destroyed 2 front tires in less than a year. 1 set of camber bolts and 2 new tires later and the alignment and tire wear is good.

The bolts are typically good enough.

After I saw a few people speaking negatively about them, I did some research and discovered that we have sold well over 1,000 sets in the last 3 calendar years. Out of those, I have not received one single report of failure, or negative complaint.
