Got Pro-kit installed

[merc123]

Just got my stang back with the Eibach Pro-kit installed. So far it handles better than it did before. I didn't need caster/camber plates. The only issue with the alignment was on left front caster. It's at 4.1* and the range is 2.5* to 4.0*. The shop said that it won't wear the tires. Everything else is in "specified range". I have a printout if anyone wants to see it.

I don't know how much it lowered it, but before I could put my fist under it and have about 1" above my hand. Now with my hand resting on the wheel, it's @ my middle finger. I can't get my hand under it completely.

Pics coming soon.

I can't wait until they settle.

give them a good month to fully settle. i was disapointed after 2.5 weeks b/c i thought they had fully settled. to my joy, 2 weeks later i noticed another .25" drop

i would strongly suggest you got the C/C plates if you have the money. if youre broke as poopy, you dont have a choice, but i would strongly suggest them. from the factory, caster isnt adjustable. its basically a hit or miss thing. its ok if its a little off, not too big a deal since caster isnt a wearing angle like toe and camber. if you really want some good handling, have the guy doing the alignment give you some negative camber. ive got 1.4* on my front tires and i could really feel a difference in the turns. i wouldnt go any more than ~1.5 though b/c then it starts to take it's toll on your inner tires.

Yeah, those will go on when I get back from Iraq.

looks great. Did it fix the problem of having the left side of the car being higher than the right? With my springs, it didn't help at all and even exaggerated the problem.

I haven't noticed.
