Default Couple questions about eibach suspension parts

ok.. so I have a 2005 mustang v6. I ordered the eibach sport line lowering springs.. mainly cause I hate how high the car currently is. I was looking into getting the eibach springs pro damper shock absorbers but I saw they only offer them for a gt.. am I wrong? not seeing something? or if that is the case why will they not work with the v6's current setup? Also... For the springs, just a quick question.. is it 100% necessary to get a set of new camber adjusting bolts? or is that just an option?

thanks in advance

Can't answer the shock question for you, not sure. In regards to the camber bolts you'll probably need them. I've seen people get away with out them using the Pro-kit. However, the sportlines lower the car even further. I would go ahead and order them if it were me.

Just my .02

+1 on new camber plates. I elected not to get them when I installed the prokits. I have alot of popping from the front end, which occurs when going over speed bumps or braking fast. This is from the stockers failing. I am now installing the plates when I install my new wheels.

The shocks should work fine on the V6. There's no difference in the setup between the 6 and the GT.
