What lowering spring setup will drop my 08 gt about 1.5-2 inches while maintaining the best ride charachteristics. also, do i need to consider new shocks, brands and prices would be helpful. do i need to make an adjustment to the geometry of the panhard bar with a 2'' drop?

FRPP K springs(<$200)are advertised at 1.5" front and rear and will need no other parts from my understanding.

I was looking at those also. I can't decide on what springs I want.

chubhunter has the FRPP springs. the amount of drop is perfect, IMO. he did not need a panhard bar. i measured that myself and was suprised the rear end was centered. he did get camber bilts, and adjusted them all the way out, IIRC. no alignment, and no noticeable tire wear.
