i have the eibach sportlines on my GT, but the front end just isnt low enough for me. what can i do to get it to drop about another 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch???i still have the isolators in. would removing them actually make a differance???

You might try the steeda x2 balljoints. Running them without the supplied coil spring spacer lowered the front of mine an additional 1/2 an inch. Plus it helps correct the steering geometry after lowering it. Pretty cool piece for 99 bucks.

yea the front just isnt low enough. i hate most lowered cars. i'm usually lifting my vehicles! but i like the way that stangs look when they are really low. i have only put about 1000 miles on the sportlines. but i dont think they will settle too much. maybe remove the isolators, or cut a coil??

try removing the isolators first, you don't want to cut the springs and have it end up wrong looking you know
