As you can see from the pic my front end sits a little higher than the back. What could be causing this? What to do to fix it?

Mine is kinda like that. I have sportlines and it sat perfectly level, but then I put a bunch of aluminum up front and it went back up. haha. So I bought some coil overs.

It seems to me like all Mustangs sit like that to some extent. Look at a bone stock Mustang and you will see it too. Then when you lower em (even with a matched set), it becomes more obvious as both gaps decrease - you notice the difference more.

Maybe it's just me, but that's the way I think it looks. I have Eibach springs, and I noticed it on mine too.

Do you have a system in the back? I thnk all mustangs just sit like that. Maybe it's from constantly accelerating and raising the front and pushing down on the rear springs from the weight transfer. Just a thought...

Oh mine sits that way too. So does my girls 01 gt, and my friend's 04 Mach one. I don't know if there is any way around it other than coilovers, putting different springs in the front, or cutting the fronts. Of course, the coilovers would be the only way it should be done, unless someone knows anohter way to fix it.
