show me pics of you guys lowered V6s and what brand springs they are ? So I can decide if the Eibachs are worth the extra 80-100 bucks over the mustangtuning.com or FRPP C springs ????

If you lower your car more than 1 inch you'll need caster camber plates and a bump steer kit. I would reccommend H+R springs with tokico shocks if you can afford it. But your ride will be **** if you don't have the bump steer kit.

bump steer kit & off-set rack bushings

H&R springs & Tokico or Bilstein shocks/struts are the way to go. and as far as CC plates MM (Maximum Motorsports) has great ones! www.maximummotorsports.com great suspension parts for the mustang

You do know that half of the FRPP springs are Eibach (F & G are Pro-Kits I believe, 95Rs are the Road-Race Comp Kits and the 00Rs are Eibach as well)... I don't know where FRPP sources their B and C springs from.

Just dropped my Stang the other day. Rides like crap, but I have my new shocks sitting here, and my new struts are coming in a bit... Of course, probably not Tokico, because I can't afford them.

I never heard of a bump steer kit before. Definately something new to me, and something I can't afford at the moment. The big thing is the negative camber wearing the tires, and I'm going to see if an alignment can be done without caster camber plates first...

Here's a pic!



By the way, the springs are a used pair of Eibach's I got off eBay for $100.

I've been thinking about upgrading my Suspension, but I really don't know where to start, I wanted something that was maybe in a complete package deal I was thinking about http://www.v6mustangstuff.com/Suspension.htm Either the Bullit Handling Kit or the Bullit Upgrated Suspension, tell me what you think and stear me in the right direction

If handling/performance is what you're after, the actual Bullitt kit will be better (and cheaper) than the "Bullitt Upgraded Suspension".

The Bullitt springs have better spring rates than the Sportlines, you'll need caster/camber plates with the Sportlines, and the Bullitt swaybars are an upgrade for V6 Mustangs.

Not my car, but this guy has MM coil-overs on Illumina 5-ways. He's also using SN95 shocks/struts with his car being lowered ~2.5in in the front.
