I dont know how the heck to adjust these things, maybe thats common. When I get an alignment do I have to make sure the mech knows I have them, and to use them?

also from my specs, do I need a bumpsteer kit? I dont know.

The mechanic will know you have them. The machine will tell him what measurements are off. Toe in/out, Caster/Camber...etc.

Best way to tell if you need a bump steer kit is to drive it over bumps. If the wheel moves one way or the other when hitting them then you need on. Another way to tell is getting the car on level ground. Look under there and make sure the tie rods are parallel with the LCA. If they are up in the air, you need a bump steer kit.

i would recommend a bump steer kit any time you lower your mustang. the power steering rack wont be working as hard.
