An alignment is MUCH cheaper than new tires in 3000 miles.johney5 said:I did not allign the car yet, but it seems like it's not necassary.
If you want the rear end to center under the car, yes.johney5 said:I'm wondering whether it is worth it to add a panhard bar???
DAVE05GT said:In order to adjust properly for alignment I would need the camber plates right? Plus shocks and this is one expensive mod.
johney5 said:which shocks, and where do you get the cheaper camber plates?
johney5 said:Hey,
I just installed an eibach prokit on my 2005GT...I didn't think they would make such a difference.
Tbe lowering is great, better visibility...handles like a go cart...but, it's just too hard a ride!
The bumpy ride sort of cancels out the advantages, because when you hit the smallest bump on a corner the car jumps. In regards to camber, it seems like you don't need the camber plates, and seems like you don't need an adjustable panhard bar...
but is there a way to keep it low, yet return to a bit of a smoother ride??? Are there some alternate shocks that would work with these Eibachs?
thanks for the help...
I put the Sport Line Eibach's on my '05 gt and it looks great, handles great but I can't get the car on a dealership ramp because it's too low. Anyone else out there having similar problems? I only have about 4" of clearance...Like I said...She's loowwww.NorthernStang said:Just picked up my car tonight after getting it lowered with the Eibach Pro-kit, I tell ya, it was like the day I picked up the car when I bought it. It looks awesome. It rode no different then before I had them in, but didn't get much chance to really try them out because it was raining.

Ok, last weekend I was out on the highway, and was pretty happy with the prokit. But last night I was being a bad boy and driving a bit fast in a city tunnel. I hit a tiny little bump, going about 100MPH, the car really jumped..all was ok, but without the eibachs I probably wouldn't have been jerked so hard as to have my adrenaline jump 1000%
So now I want to soften the ride up seriously...any ideas how to calm down the suspension, but keep it low?
