I have a 1970 Mustang and have completed the "Shelby" drop. My question is if I should also install the negative wedge camber kit by Pro-Motorsports Engineering to help with the binding or the ball joint. Would the wedge kit be a good idea? Will it hurt or better the suspension geometry? Thanks.

since you only lowered the pivot point 1" you dont need the negative wedge correction. you dont have to worry about ball joint binding unless you are going to go more than 1" lower on the pivot point.

YOu do not need the Pro-Motorsports Engineering neg wedge kit with the Shelby drop only if you do a lower drop.

I forgot to mention I am also using 620# front coil springs. I think that drops the ride height some as well.

The upper arm will hit the bump stop before the ball joint comes into bind with a 1" drop, no matter what kind of spring or how low the car is. No worries!

There are plenty of other options you can spend your money to make your Mustang handle better. Roller spring perches definitely come to mind
