looking into lowering my 2014 mustang GT base model. Can the KW V3 coilovers be lowered 1.5 inches or lower and not have a super stiff ride? In my opinion the stock suspension on the car is a little soft. There is a lot of vertical travel and it seems to have light damping. I'm looking for a...

Alright so I have a '68 Mustang. I replaced everything suspension wise after I did my v8 swap. I took it to get aligned and that's when they told me (I'm an idiot and forgot) that I didn't change the idler arm and it needed to be before they could align it. So I ordered 2 new bushings, and got...

I bought BBk Caster Camber plates for my Eibach R1 coil over kit to find that the plates are manufactured to take the stock springs, (see attached). If anybody has any ideas on how to work around this complication i'd want to hear them. If its not possible, are there other options for plates...

I'm in the process of putting a 302 into my '68 coupe. To account for the weight and torque, I've beefed up the suspension all around to include new coil springs and a front sway bar. I had to cut the coil springs down to find the right height for the front end but now the sway bar seems to...
